Embalse das Forcadas
A paradise for water sports
Encoro das Forcadas, built in the 1960s, is much more than a source of water supply for the Ferrolterra region. Surrounded by green and mountainous landscapes, this enclosure offers a natural landscape of great beauty that invites you to enjoy the serenity and free air.
With a considerable surface area (150 hectares), the Encoro is the ideal place for those looking to escape the hustle and bustle and immerse themselves in nature. Its surroundings are perfect for hiking, cycling or birdwatching, as there are many different aquatic species. It's also a good place to practise kayaking or piraguing, as well as for recreational fishing and spotting the many birds that inhabit it at all times of the year, although at certain times of the year it can be closed due to the presence of cyanobacteria.
Accessible by road and with paths that allow you to explore its surroundings, this space has become a reference point for those who enjoy direct contact with nature in a peaceful and secluded environment.
