La Nicolière reservoir, mountain views

La Nicolière, Rivière du Rempart · North

A complete change of scenery: here you swap the lagoon for the cool green interior. The ridge road looks down over the lake and the northern plain all the way to the sea, with shaded areas under the trees along the reservoir. It runs several degrees cooler than the coast — the smart move on very hot days.
