Rialb dam is 99 metres high and construction began in 1992, a few kilometres downstream from Oliana dam. Opened in 2000, the reservoir has a capacity of 403 hm3, supplying more than 80 population centres via the Segarra-Garrigues Canal and the Urgell Canal.
Rialb reservoir lies beneath Tiurana, bounded by the mountains of Peramola, Oliana, Bassella, Baronia del Rialb, Ponts and Tiurana itself. Fed by the River Segre, the Rialb, which gives it its name, and the Ribera Salada and surrounded by beautiful forests climbing the slopes of the hills and mountains, where you can see various hermitages and farmhouses, all of them very old, it forms a magnificent natural landscape.
