Noguera - LLEIDA
Tu I Lleida
In 2008 Tu i Lleida was founded with the aim of creating a tourist consultancy and receptive travel agency specialized in Catalonia, and especially in the Serra del Montsec (Noguera). Our goal is to be able to serve our customers in a different and more special way, so that they can experience more and new sensations. We have settled in Os de Balaguer, from where we manage the reservations throughout the territory. We also do guided tours of the Os Malignum Castrum Castle, the Bell Museum of Catalonia, the Balma dels Vilars (UNESCO World Heritage Site), the Energy Interpretive Center and the Geology of the Dam of Canelles, and the Birthplace of the surrealist artist Leandre Cristòfol. On the other hand, the consultancy Tu i Lleida specializes in the creation and marketing of tourist products, with the ability to analyze and develop projects based on the current and the potential reality of a territory, from the operational action up to the strategic.

The dam, located on Noguera Ribagorçana river’s mouth, it’s considerate the biggest one in all Catalonia and the second tallest dam in Europe. Formed by a semicircular containment barrier of 152 meters high and a capacity of 680hm3.
In his interior, complex turbines are hidden that take advantage of the water’s energy to produce electricity. A visit at the hydraulic plant will allow us to know first-hand how behind the simple act of pushing a button there’s an entire unknown world for many of us.
