Lac de la Liez, Water recreation area in Orbigny-au-Val, France.
Lac de la Liez is a large water body in Orbigny-au-Val that covers a substantial surface area and extends for several kilometers along its shoreline. The basin reaches approximately 18 meters at its deepest point and accommodates swimmers, boaters, and recreationists throughout the year.
The water body was created as part of a water management system that supplies the upper section of a canal connecting the Champagne and Burgundy regions. It ranks as the largest of four lakes that feed this distribution network and plays an important role in regional water management.
The lake serves as a gathering place where water sports enthusiasts regularly sail, windsurf, and explore on electric boats. The outdoor recreation base along the shore has become a social hub for people seeking active time on the water.
The lake is accessible from the western side via departmental road D284, which connects to nearby villages in the area. The grounds are well-maintained and visitors should bring appropriate gear depending on the activity they plan to pursue.
The lake features an inflatable water park with an obstacle course called Xtrem Tower that appeals to visitors of various ages. This installation adds a playful dimension beyond what typical water recreation areas offer.
