The Vézoles lake dam, commissioned in 1956 for hydroelectric production, holds back the waters of the Bureau stream in the heart of the Haut-Languedoc region. The site is located in a high plateau area where waters are divided between the large Atlantic and Mediterranean watersheds, giving this relief a particular dimension.
From the dam, the lake appears nestled in a forest setting, in a calm and wild atmosphere, typical of the massif's mid-mountain regions.

Lake Vésoles

Highlight • Other

Nestled in the mountains of Haut-Languedoc, the Vézoles lake is a dam lake. Built in the mid-20th century for hydroelectric production, it retains the waters of the upper Agout valley in a narrow and largely wooded site, characteristic of the high plateaus of the massif. Located in a transition zone between the large Atlantic and Mediterranean watersheds, this body of water is set in a unique setting.
