Lago de Sanabria -Zamora. Located in the province of Zamora , it is in a spectacular setting of valleys, lakes and deep ravines. The most impressive feature of this landscape is the Sanabria lake, formed in the last glaciation period and the largest lake in Spain.
The breathtaking contrast of the surrounding mountains, the natural beaches on its shores, the light reflecting off the surface and the lush vegetation of the area create an unforgettable image.

There is a legend surrounding this beautiful place which adds to the mystery and magic of its origins: they say that at the bottom of the lake lies a town which was flooded due to a divine curse, and on the night of San Juan you can still hear the tolling of the church bells. The spell-binding beauty of the scenery is not the only reason to visit.
