Description
Artificial lake created by the American army in 1918 to supply the town with drinking water
// IMPORTANT //
A new landscape at Bois Joalland. The lake is currently being temporarily drained to allow for work to reinforce its dam. The site is still open to visitors, but some activities and access points may be affected during this period. Further information is available on the City of Saint-Nazaire’s website: www.saintnazaire.fr/.
In the Immaculée neighbourhood, this 44.33-hectare lake has become a must-visit spot for anglers, joggers, and sailing and rowing enthusiasts.
Walkers can circumnavigate it along a three-kilometre path. A little further on, the Guindreff and Belle-Hautière ponds extend this green belt around the town.
