Frac Pond

Highlight • Lake

Nice little lake with a big hut. Hardly frequented when I visited on October 23rd. The hut has stable tables and benches both inside and outside (under a large canopy), inviting you to take a break in a quiet place. The lake can be reached by car and there is parking available there.

April 17, 2025, Moulin-Begeot Farm and Guesthouse, Melisey

April 2025: The main house is currently being rebuilt after a fire in November 2024, so no catering will likely take place until the end of 2025. We recommend the holiday apartment above the donkey stable (pleasantly warm in April...).

4 star refuge (at least), a supply of wood, the stove seems to be working according to the guest book, plenty of space at the top for sleeping and a spring in front of the refuge. Height: 1017 m https://www.refuges.info/point/2852/cabane-non-gardee/Hautes-Vosges/Refuge-de-la-grande-goutte/
