Wind specificities
North-West is the prime direction here: wind rolls cleanly down the full length of the lake, steadier than from the south, with slight chop possible. In fine summer weather, afternoon thermals can build a nice NW. North wind can be poorly oriented and disturbed at this access point.
Hazards
A few trees near the launch zone — easily avoided with basic precautions. Angled parking must be strictly respected. Autonomous level recommended. Avoid swimmers near the nautical base in summer. Do not drift into the wooded nature reserve at the lake edge.
