Lac de Saint-Pardoux, lake in France
Lac de Saint-Pardoux is a reservoir in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region of France created by damming a river. The water body covers a substantial area and offers designated swimming zones and spaces for water-based activities.
The reservoir was created in the mid-20th century through dam construction. The project served water storage and power generation purposes for surrounding communities.
The reservoir is accessible year-round, and visitors should use designated swimming areas for safe bathing. Summer months offer the best conditions, though the site may get crowded during peak times.
