Lake Den boasts more than one title. Its waters disappear in the ground and emerged at the Gallo-Roman sanctuary of Villards d'Héria, after an unknown underground journey of 12 hours. Was there a mysteriously disappeared city near the lake? Nothing is less secure. But a temple dedicated to Mars was erected in antiquity. In the th century, the hydrogeological specificity of the site was exploited: hydraulic machines are installed below the lake. Valves are opened and closed to regulate their operation. A beautiful walk on the GR 9 leads to the belvédère rock belvedere which dominates the lake at 961 m above sea level. Do not hesitate to take the climb, because if it is not possible to approach the banks by the bottom, this belvedere offers a superb view of the lake of Den, set in a dark setting of trees and cliffs. Beyond that, we also see the Jura peaks and, in clear time, to Geneva.

Magnificent site where you will appreciate the walks in autumn under a beautiful sun.
After toured of the Lake, you can go up to the belvedere (La Roche d'Antre) where a magnificent view shows. If the weather is clear, you can even see the town of Geneva.
