"This course of about 8 kilometers represents an average of 2h40 of walking.

The marsh trail offers unspoilt nature areas. Annay means places planted with alders, the marshes were drained to make them cultivable.

The communal water body is a favorite environment for many species of birds. With the discovery of coal seams in 1849, the population multiplied by 10 in one century."
