General information

The following fishing practices are permitted:

  • Lakeside fishing
  • Boat and float tube fishing

For safety reasons, at Eau d'Heure, float tubes are treated as boats and are therefore subject to the same conditions.

Boat fishing

Boat fishing is only permitted on Lake Féronval, Lake Ry Jaune and Lake Falemprise in the areas marked in green on the map, i.e.:

  • Lake Féronval: south zone
  • Lake Ry Jaune: whole lake
  • Lake Falemprise: south-west zone, all year round, and north-east zone from 1 October to 31 March

​The launch ramps are accessed using a padlock key, which can be requested by anglers holding a B licence.
Boats and float tubes must comply with the regulations in force on waterways.

Car park near fishing spots

Two vehicle access roads are available to anglers, providing access to car parks located closer to Lake Plate Taille. This is the path leading to the place known as ‘Fontaine aux planes’ (P.T. 46) and the path running alongside the golf course (P.T. 39).

Accessibility for anglers with reduced mobility

The non-profit The Eau d'Heure Lakes have three pontoons built for anglers with reduced mobility on Lake Falemprise.

  • One is located on the north bank, near the Falemprise dam.
  • The other two are located on the south bank, opposite the Relais de Falemprise.
