The Pavin lake in Besse-et-Saint-Anastaise where the legend tells that the smallest pebble thrown in it triggers impetuous storms.

According to the legend, Satan would have filled it and it would be the door of hell. Its name comes from the Latin pavens, which means frightful. Its calm, dark waters form an almost perfect circular surface. It is said that the smallest pebble thrown into it triggers impetuous storms. That doesn't scare the fishermen who come here to fish for trout or arctic char. Scientists have been studying the characteristics of this crater lake for a long time. Its water is cold and well oxygenated, around 4°C at the bottom...

Un superbe lac, incontournable
Par beau temps, le lac Pavin dévoile ses nuances de bleus... Une merveille! Faites le tour du lac et arrêtez vous manger au restaurant du même nom : panorama assuré!

Bien caché et tellement beau.
Ancienne cheminée volcanique, le Lac Pavin est unique de par sa forme (un rond parfait), sa couleur (du vert au bleu selon les saisons) et la pureté de ses eaux. Une promenade d'une heure vous permet d'en faire le tour, à pieds ou en raquettes selon la saison. Eviter l'été car il est générale noir de monde.

Incontournable
Incontournable des volcan d'auvergne, le lac est un lac de crat_ère pour lequel de nombreuses légendes existent, et l'une d'elle est contée sur le chemin qui part faire le tour du lac.
A noter un point de vue sur la route qui rejoint le Cézalier.
L'eau bleue permet de voir les poissons. Quand le vent s'arrête, le paysage reflété est magnifique !

We arrived at the top, side of Estivadoux and started the walk by the descent, right side, quite steep (I have the verge and is not necessarily very objective! My son found it very easy!) However, the view is beautiful, the color of the water changes depending on where we look at it. Coming down, a lot of people (restaurant) but we went on walking to finish the tour of the lake on a more practicable path! To see, to do and to see!
