Lake Pellaud


The Lakes Pellaud are two lakes located in the municipality of Rhêmes-Notre-Dame, in Aosta Valley, and more precisely in the area known as Jardin des Anglais.

Description

The lake is situated within a forest, and the area is equipped with benches and tables for picnics.

Hydroelectric plant

The Pellaud mill, originally built for grinding cereals, was transformed into a small hydroelectric plant in 1921 by Henri Bristin with the creation of the Société coopérative électrique du Lé. This operation enabled the provision of lighting to the hamlets of Pont, Pellaud, and La Chaudanaz.

Access

The lakes can be reached starting from the hamlet of Chanavey, the hamlet of Pellaud, or the main village of Bruil.
