Surduc Lake
Fârdea, Romania
Lake Surduc (Romanian: Lacul Surduc) is a dammed reservoir in the northwestern part of Poiana Ruscă Mountains. It is located in Timiș County, on the administrative territory of Fârdea. It got its name from the nearby village of Surducu Mic. The lake largely ensures the drinking water supply of Timișoara and the surrounding area and protects it from flooding. As the water of the lake does not freeze, thousands of waterfowl take shelter here during the winter, the lake being a recreation area for fishermen, hunters and tourists. Lake Surduc has been an IUCN Category IV protected area since 2000.
