El llac de Bethmale és un bonic raconet al capdamunt de la vall del mateix nom (Vathmala en occità).

========================================
A nice natural spot in the french Pyrenees, the Bethmale lake.
El centro de los jardines es ocupado por un estanque casi seco rodeado de varios elementos de interés arquitectónico, dos cuevas artificiales de carácter romántico, una con embarcadero. Encima hay un templete ecléctico de inspiración griega, rodeado por ocho columnas estriadas de estilo corintio y pedestales de granito grisáceo con dados esculpidos. Son de mármol blanco coronadas por capitel del mismo material
“El lago del oeste” cerca de Shanghai. Estuvo todo el día con niebla, incluso llovió a ratos, pero le daba un encanto especial... En primavera o verano debe ser espectacular!

L'estany de Montcortès, al Pallars Sobirà, és pràcticament l'unic llac no glacial de Catalunya, juntament amb el de Banyoles. També hi ha els de Basturs, però son molt més petits. En coneixeu algun altre?
Té una amplada d'uns 1300 metres.
Perquè a Catalunya tenim tan pocs llacs naturals (apart dels d'alta muntanya?). Amb lo relaxants que son...

=====================
The lake of Montcortès, in the Pallars Sobirà, is practically the only non-glacial lake in Catalonia, along with that of Banyoles. There are also those from Basturs, but they are much smaller.
It's almost round in shape, and has a winth of about 1300 m., and a depth of 30 m.

NOVA ZELANDA, Aotearoa B/N 2023
Lake Te Anau (Māori: Te Ana-au) is in the southwestern corner of the South Island of New Zealand. The lake covers an area of 344 km2 (133 sq mi), making it the second-largest lake by surface area in New Zealand (after Lake Taupō) and the largest in the South Island. It is the second largest lake in Australasia by fresh water volume. The main body of the lake runs north-south, and is 65 km in length. Three large fiords form arms to the lake on its western flank: North Fiord, Middle Fiord and South Fiord. These are the only inland fiords that New Zealand has, the other 14 are out on the coast. Several small islands lie in the entrance to Middle Fiord, which forks partway along its length into northwest and southwest arms. The surface of the lake is at an altitude of 210 m. It has a maximum depth of 425 m, so much of its bed lies below sea level, with the deepest part of the lake being 215 metres below sea level.
The Lake Te Anau control gates which control the flow of water from Lake Te Anau into the Waiau river and maintain the water level between 201.5 and 202.7 metres above sea level.
Several rivers feed the lake, of which the most important is the Eglinton River, which joins the lake from the east, opposite the entrance to North Fiord. The outflow is the Waiau River, which flows south for several kilometres into Lake Manapouri. The town of Te Anau lies at the south-eastern corner of the lake, close to the outflow.
Most of the lake is within Fiordland National Park and the Te Wahipounamu World Heritage Site, the latter of which was officially recognised internationally in 1990. Other than the Te Anau township, the only human habitation close to the lake is the farming settlement of Te Anau Downs, close to the mouth of the Eglinton River. Between these two settlements the land is rolling hill country, but elsewhere the land is mountainous, especially along its western shore, where the Kepler and Murchison Mountains rise 1,400 m above the surface of the lake.[citation needed]
Lake Te Anau was important for the Ngāi Tahu iwi in pre-European times as the area was a traditional stopping point on their trails between the east and west coasts of the South Island of New Zealand, where they obtained food and resources. The lake was first discovered by European explorers Charles Naim and William Stephen in 1852.
Two New Zealand Great Walks start at the lake. The Milford Track starts at the northern tip of the lake and the Kepler Track starts and ends at the south tip of the lake at the Waiau River.
