Tour du lac de la Vingeanne - PR N°140

Nature, birds and wide open spaces:
Take the whole family on a lovely 12km walk (allow 3 hours) around Lac de la Vingeanne, a haven of peace on the border between forest, meadow and water. You start from the beach and walk along the north shore to an ornithological observatory, perfect for your first curious pause. You then cross the bay of Percey and the charming village of the same name, before joining grassy paths bordered by fields and woods. The route alternates between minor roads, white paths and wilder stretches. You may come across herons, grebes or birds of prey, and in spring, some rare orchids on the dyke! There are several picnic areas along the way, and the water sports centre offers a great reward at the finish. It's an accessible loop, rich in scenery and discoveries, ideal for a breath of fresh air with the whole family.
The tour of the lake includes an interpretation based on discovering the lake, its environment and the traditions that have shaped its landscapes, as well as the lake's birds (species recognition, behaviour, etc.).

In search of lost feathers
Hi, I'm Hip-Hop. I'm the son of the king of the Vingeanne festival. Yes, you've guessed it, my dad is the famous and talented feathered dog. Every year he and his mates organise a great weekend of concerts by the lake. And he's been doing it since 1997! Except that this year I made a blunder! I brought along his new feathered crown to show it off to some friends, but I lost it by the lake. Suffice to say that the feathered dog festival, without feathers, won't be much fun! I absolutely need your help to find her. So we're going to set off around Lake Vingeanne in search of a sign that might tell me what happened. You'll see that the path is lined with interpretation panels that will give us clues and teach us lots of things about the lake, its inhabitants and, of course, the music!
