    Cardet Dam Viewpoint

    Walk along the right bank of the river from Barruera toward the dam to reach a scenic viewpoint with sweeping vistas of the village.Salencar (Barruera) is designated an Area of Natural Interest within the European Natura 2000 network. This wetland serves as a vital biological corridor and stopover for migratory birds traveling from northern Europe to southern regions. Exploring Salencar reveals nature's remarkable ability to adapt to both natural processes and human interventions—like the Cardet Dam constructed in the 1950s, which formed a river barrier where sediments accumulated. Over time, this fostered typical wetland vegetation, including lush reed beds that now define the landscape.
