Coming to the dams is an opportunity to discover a majestic landscape listed on the inventory of picturesque sites of the Loire. You can learn more about water with the factory's educational walkway and the Maison de l'Eau exhibition.

All year, every day.

The dams both supply the Roannais with drinking water.
Walks on the belvederes of the dams. Pleasure to discover the local heritage. In the shade of hundred-year-old trees, let's discover together the world of the mid-mountain forest on a walk. On site, you will find at your disposal: a discovery area, a restaurant, an amusement park, picnic tables, a drinking water point, public toilets.

Further information :
A forester from the National Forestry Office accompanies you to the site of the "La Tâche" and "Rouchain" dams in the heart of the Monts de la Madeleine on the outskirts of Roanne. An agent of the Roannaise de l'Eau shows you around the Maison de l'Eau. The Auberge du Barrage welcomes you for a "discovery" meal of local products.
