Bordeaux Lake

3 hours to walk just around the lake, which you barely see due to the vegetation. The only access point to the lake is the small beach where dogs are allowed on a leash. This is completely out of line with the advertised duration. There's very little view of the lake, and a lot of trash on the route, half of which is a paved bike path. A good portion passes through squats, shantytowns, garbage dumps, and other signs of human activity with little respect for nature. A good portion runs along the highway. In short, it was a disappointment for us; we don't recommend this route.
