Lac De La Case Lac de la Case is also known as “Lac Sud de la Case”. In fact, it has a twin, “Lac Nord de la Case”, around thirty metres away, which is almost completely filled in by vegetation.
The southern lake is thought to be fed by sublacustrine seepage. In the past, the two lakes formed a single lake that flowed down a valley towards the Chalets d’Oche.
It takes its name from an old chalet located along the path leading to the two lakes.
