At the bend of the path, there is a rock in the shape of a benevolent face that welcomes you, it is a wooden sculpture that evokes a mysterious animal. . .
Walk with your nose in the air, your eyes wide open and let yourself be surprised by the more than seventy works of art installed along the Lez’arts trail.
Unusual and singular, it is a family walk that will take you to the discovery of typical hamlets witnessing an ancient heritage.
Admire these beautiful chapels on the promontory and imagine the smell of hot bread coming out of the old oven, dive your hand into one of the many bachals where the water is as cold as it is pure.
Fancy a relaxing or gourmet break? The water body with its welcoming and shady surroundings will be your haven of peace
Good plan; have lunch on the terrace at the restaurant “le chalet de la Trappe”
And especially come back. . . because the trail has been enriched with new creations every year for more than 20 years with works by artists from all over the world!
Another option around the lake: the “Comfort Promenade” accessible to all: strollers, seniors, accompanied PMR.

Sustainable tourism
The Lez'arts en Adret trail is a veritable open-air art gallery that can be visited all year round on foot or snowshoes. This major tourist attraction contributes fully to developing the local economy and maintaining the village's only restaurant. Guided tours (for schoolchildren, etc.) generate income for the association, and allow hosts to rent out their property.
Host portrait
The Lez'arts en Adret association celebrates its 20th anniversary! Founded in 2001, it is the driving force behind the creation of the art trail, which today boasts some 70 works, most of them made from natural materials (stone, straw, wood...) but also iron, glass... The aim is to bring together art, artists, local people and the environment.
