“Stunning lake”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 May 2012 NEW

person found this review helpful

Incredible location means this lake is worth a visit for sure, but be careful. If you go out of the two seasons the ski lift will be closed meaning a it hike up there and back. But it is such an amazing treat that it was worth all the effort. More

“Peaceful, tranquil and one of the most beautiful places you could visit”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 September 2011

We love visiting Lac de Gaube. On this visit we walked to the lake, the walk is not too difficult and there is the bonus of the hostelerie when you get there. They serve very reasonable priced lunches and where better to sit and eat lunch than in the sunshine overlooking the lake with blue skies above - Heaven! More
