The lake originated when a dike was laid in the valley of the river Arroux around 1750. A water mill (grain mill) was built on the dike called Moulin Fouché. The municipality of Arnay-le-Duc has made the lake a beautiful recreational lake with a beach. Swimming is allowed in a part of the lake. Due to drip in the water, the different swimming areas are indicated. If a flag is hanging in July and August, there is a lifeguard on duty. On the beach there are two free water slides and a children's playground. On part of the lake you can paddle board, pedal boats and sail with small boats. Next to the beach are several picnic benches and around the lake are several beautiful lawns. A gently sloping two-kilometer path for walking, biking, and fitness runs around the lake. In half an hour you will be around and on the way you will pass three bridges and all kinds of trims. It's a lovely, quiet and relaxing walk. In the neighborhood, 90 kilometers of hiking, biking and mountain biking trails have been deployed. On the lake is a green and quiet Huttopia campsite, where fun activities are organized and where (electric) bicycles can be rented. Everyone is allowed to eat in the camping restaurant. Because Moulin Fouché was built against the dike - and is therefore more or less below the water level - the sounds of the camping guests and the people in the water and on the beach are often over you. As a result, you can enjoy your well-deserved peace and nature at your cottage. If you love fishing, l'Etang Fouché is a good place for your hobby. The lake is an official fishing location. There can be fished for carp, white fish, pike and pike perch. A fishing license is for sale at the nearby campsite.
