Description

This project created an artificial lake to allow small boat navigation and for recreational and water sports activities. The azud also serves as a pedestrian connection between the two neighbourhoods of Vadorrey and Las Fuentes, creating an exceptional viewpoint on the Ebro.

Highlights

The project that includes a 216 meter pedestrian walkway will create a stable 3.8 kilometer sheet of water, thus raising the water level.
