The Estanyol Occidental de Canalbona or Estany de Canalbona is a small glacial lake located between the Pic de Canalbona and the "Rodó de Canalbona", at the base of the "Collet Fals" in the Montcalm Massif near the "Pica d'Estats". The lake drains towards the Catalan side. The ice usually is totally melted at the end of the summer.
