Lac de barrage d'Alicurá

Lac de barrage d'Alicurá, Stausee in Argentinien

Description

Embalse de Alicurá is a reservoir in Neuquén Province, Argentina, formed by a dam across a river valley. The water body stretches across a wide area surrounded by steep rocky banks and dense forest.

History

The reservoir was created in the second half of the 20th century when a dam was built across the river. The project was part of regional development to generate hydroelectric power in Patagonia.

Practical

The reservoir can be accessed by roads running through the province, with several access points along the shoreline. Visitors should bring warm layers since the Patagonian climate is windy and changeable.
