In a nutshell. This is a bit of an indoorsy attraction, but you won’t want to miss it. Elidir Mountain above the lake is hollow, hiding the largest pumped-storage hydro-electric power station in Europe. Take an underground tour of this awesome space.
Why go? It’s like a film-set for a James Bond movie, vast chambers and tunnels so big you can drive a bus through them. Which is a good job, since you’ll be on it.
