    a lovely location with all sorts of aquatic activities available. good place for a walk. There is a 15 km circuit walk of the lake which is lovely. For the most part you are walking right along the shore, with forest/ woodlands next to you. Very pleasant and an easy, flat stroll.

    A lake in a pristine environment with a great view on the Pyrenees Mountains. Nice pick-nick spots and walks, as long as the artificial lake isn't empty at the end of a drought...

    Lovely tranquil spot, especiall out of season. I imagine it gets packed in Summer though. Nice walks around the lake if you don't fancy a swim.

    Beautiful lake in a picturesque location. Great for canoeing and paddle boarding ect. I didn't think much of the snack bar €4 for a tray of soggy undercooked fries . Take a picnic!

    Great for a swim and chill. Parking can be a bit of a mare sometimes.

    Lac de Montbell is brilliant. Nice big lake with plenty of room to swim or sail. Lots of interesting natural things to discover all around especially if the water level is low. There is free nearby parking too.

    Interesting place. This lake is a water reservoir and supply for nearby towns, and it's level rises and falls significantly during the year. We've been there during a draught and the water level was very low at that point. A large portion of the muddy lakebed was exposed and you had to walk through it to get to the water itself. The water was very warm and still, but we did not go to swim, it was a bit too warm and still and murky to our liking. The lake shores are very bendy and it has several islands it seems. We walked to one of the islands across the mud strip, so it wasn't an island technically as the water level dropped so much. Overall an interesting place to visit, though we probably would not need to go there again.
