Presentation
The site is composed of the catchment area of Lake Achard, as well as the valley and the vast peaty plateau of Arselle, which are crossed by the Salinière stream. This site has been included in the Natura 2000 (Europe) and ENS* (Department) networks.
Because of the peatbog that consititues the plateau, its environmental, botanical and animal interest, the Arselle has become a nature protected area thanks to a decree on biotope protection. The aim is to protect the present species.
⚠ Please note: fire, camping, fishing and swimming are strictly forbidden (under penalty of fine). Bivouacking is permitted at Lake Achard from sunset to sunrise (except from mid-June to mid-September) and is strictly forbidden on the Arselle plateau. Please stay on the paths in order to preserve the fragile environment (the Arselle peat bog is classified as an APPB - Arrêtés Préfectoraux de Protection Biotope, it is forbidden to go onto the plateau off the path).
