Like the Frumezan as a side trip from the Glandon, this Lai is worth the detour off the Oberalp. As it is a dead end, there's little to no traffic, the road is in reasonable to good condition. You can cycle on along the lake, past the dam, but depending on weather conditions, this may not be possible on a normal road bike. I do not have nicer pictures than already posted, as I cycled between thunderstorms, but I've uploaded a couple to show the condition of the "road" after the dam.

Hidden unknown gem cycled in 2019.
Don't stop at the dam but be sure to cycle further until the end of the tarmac road above the green-blue reservoir.
Top climb superlatives fall short. Pure nature with no traffic.
Thanks to the hotel owner in Sedrun, where I stayed, for the tip!

Verborgen onbekende parel gefietst in 2019.
Stop niet op de stuwdam maar fiets zeker nog verder door tot het einde van de asfaltweg boven het groenblauwe stuwmeer.
Topklim superlatieven schieten tekort. Puur natuur zonder verkeer.
Bedankt hoteluitbater in Sedrun,waar ik verbleef, voor de tip!
