After spending 6 weeks there for independent geological mapping, I know the place very well. Everywhere in the area is beautiful, the paved roads provide easy walks around the lake and to the smaller lake. Walking up to the highest peak on the east side of the lake is not too difficult and the view is spectacular as you can see Martigny and Chamonix from the peak. During late June there is still quite a lot of snow so some areas, especially off the main path are difficult or impossible to access but by mid July most of the snow has melted. Recommended for families, young people and geologists.

Excellent starting point for some hiking in the Swiss/French alps. Amazingly it seems to be quite unknown with everyone just staying at the dam and no one hiking in the mountains behind the lake. Great route from here to ales Marécottes (both accessible with public transport).

Incredibly beautiful place ! Enjoy such activities like hiking, walking, zip line and restaurant with an amazing view.it’s better to come here early in the morning and spend the whole day here by enjoying the nature.

Barrage très impressionnant, dans un cadre alpin idyllique. La nature à l’état sauvage : rivières, cascades, sapins, bouquetins… On ne peut pas ne pas aimer :-). Possibilité de marcher jusqu’au barrage du Vieux-Emosson également en 2h environ donc compter 4h aller-retour. La randonnée est facile, il y a juste une petite montée à la fin. Sinon, au barrage d’Emosson on y trouve une buvette, et la possibilité de prendre des funiculaires et trains panoramiques ! Il y a également deux parkings à disposition. Il faut juste faire attention à la route qui est très sinueuse et étroite, et il y a souvent des chutes de pierres.
