Lake Vernant is a mountain lake located at the bottom of a grassy valley, where you can fish for brown trout, rainbow trout, and salmon.

Nestled in the heart of the Vernant valley, this lake is a hillside reservoir offering a beautiful view of the Aravis mountains. You can admire the Pointe Percée directly from the lake’s shores. For fishing, the good fish density, their catchability, and the surrounding mountain scenery make it a very pleasant lake to fish. Early morning and late evening can be particularly productive during the summer months. Located at an altitude of 1,842 m, Lake Vernant also serves as a drinking water reservoir for Flaine, which is why swimming is prohibited. Picnic tables are set up around the lake.

Access

Lake Vernant is located upstream from the resort, in a mountain hollow bearing the same name.

If you are coming by car, please park at the free Vernant car park, located about 10 minutes from Flaine. When arriving from the resort of Les Carroz, the car park will be on your right-hand side. From the car park, allow around a 30-minute walk to reach the site.

In summer, during school holidays, free shuttle buses are available directly from the resorts of Flaine or Les Carroz. Simply ask the driver to drop you off at the “Vernant” stop. This stop is located in the same place as the free car park. From there, you will need to walk for about 30 minutes with an elevation gain of 100 metres to reach the lake.
