Lake Ry de Rome Loop

This 5km loop runs around the Ry de Rome lake on mostly flat terrain. There's only a short climb around the first kilometer, before the route resumes a steady and easy path. The rest of the route follows paved or forest paths close to the water and small streams.

Departure and start of the hike

The hike begins at Lake Ry de Rome , directly along the path that runs along the shore. After a few hundred meters, the route climbs slightly towards a small rise, before descending back towards the lake.

Points of interest along the route

Lake Ry de Rome – heart of the hike, surrounded by a wooded and calm setting.
Ry des Serpents – small stream crossed or alongside depending on the route.
Ry de l'Hermitage – stream present in the second part of the route.
Ry de Rome Dam – structure which holds back the waters of the lake and marks an interesting passage on the circuit.
