Great little ride. The road is rough but it goes very well. Be careful on the way down. At times, the potholes are so big that you don't get caught out. Of course, you go all the way to the lake and then turn around on Plage Saint Julien. The arrival at the lake is rather beautiful. Yes, a sort of hidden gem.

Super petite balade. La route est défoncée mais ça passe très bien. Attention en redescendant. A la fois, les nids de poule sont si gros que l’on ne se laisse pas surprendre. Bien entendu, on va jusqu’au lac et on fait demi tour plage Saint Julien. L’arrivée sur le lac est plutôt belle. Oui, une sorte de joyau caché.
