Just before reaching the parking area of Vallter 2000 resort we can see how Ter river is rising between mountains.
Specifically, Ter rises in Ulldeter at an approximate elevation of 2,400 meters, at the foot of a glacial cirque delimited by the nearby peaks of el Bastiments, el Gra de Fajol, or el Pic de la Dona.
It runs through the comarques of Ripollès, Osona, Selva, Gironès, and Baix Empordà, discharging into the Mediterranean Sea at l'Estartit.
The Ter follows a course of 208 kilometers and drains an
area of approximately 3,010 square kilometers becoming one of the most important factor in Catalan agriculture.
Ter, essence of life !
