Lakeside beach, damaged access road
49318, Fresno de la Carballeda
Been here?
This beautiful lakeside spot beside a beach accommodates around 2 vans and is surrounded by broom and lavender. Nights can be excellent, but daytime crowds may bring loud music, shouting, and many vehicles. The access road is badly damaged, and recent reports mention dirty water. Good ground clearance is needed, and rain may require 4x4.

I would give it 5 stars because the site deserves it, but as far as peace and quiet in nature are concerned, there is none. It fills up with people playing music at full volume, shouting, and partying. The night was wonderful, but it does not make up for the daytime madness… 02/04/2026.
Poor access, dirty water.
I completely agree with the last two comments. It is a very beautiful, relaxing place. We arrived in the evening and there was nobody there. Locals arrive around 5 p.m. to swim, with music and several cars, so it quickly becomes full. The road is in very poor condition.
Very beautiful place, but at this time of year there are many people. In addition, local residents come to swim and play music far too loudly. We also went for a walk to explore the area, and when we returned some personal belongings were missing. The last part of the road is in very poor condition; it is fine with a 4x4, but a van or motorhome could easily break down. Not worth going for just one night.
Exact description, very beautiful spot! A forest ranger visited to raise awareness about fires; otherwise, a perfect night.
A little paradise spot in the middle of nature, close to dragonflies and fish!!
