Discovering Lake Liscia
Lake Liscia is an artificial lake in Gallura, northern Sardinia, located between the municipalities of Sant’Antonio di Gallura, Luras, Arzachena, Calangianus and Luogosanto.
It finds its origin in the weir of the Liscia river and other minor streams by means of a 69 meters high lightened-gravity dam, finished in 1962. The maximum capacity of the reservoir is 105 million cubic meters of water, but this could actually be reached only in 2004, when the structure was strengthened and its static testing was completed.
The artificial lake guarantees the water supply of the entire lower Gallura, where, especially in the summer, there is a strong demand for water due to the high concentration of tourists.
