    Large lake in the Orne department, located in Suisse Normande. Artificial lake, but very well preserved and landscaped, you can walk there, with even the presence of a restaurant boat during the holidays!

      The history of Lake Rabodanges begins in 1919, the date when a first study was established by the Société Normande d’études pour l’development of the Orne basin and its tributaries.
      The bed of the Orne presents, over four kilometers, from the entrance to the exit of the Gorges de St-Aubert, an exceptional slope that is not encountered anywhere else in Normandy: of the order of 40 meters .
      Furthermore, the narrowness of the valley at the entrance to these gorges, combined with a splendid natural basin developing upstream, allowed engineers to plan the ambitious work of a dam and a reservoir. significant water. The Rabodanges basin allows storage of 6 million m3 of water, over 95 hectares, retained by a dam 160 meters long and 17 meters high.
