Day 368 - 14/09/2014 : Vall d'Aran, panorama from Vielha

The Val d'Aran is a valley in the Pyrenees mountains and the northwesterer shire in Catalonia, belonging part of the province of Lleida.

The Val d'Aran borders France on the north, the Spanish Autonomous Community of Aragon to the west and the Catalan comarques of Alta Ribagorça to the south and Pallars Sobirà to the east.

The main city is Vielha, mostly known by the tunnel opened in 1948 which allowed the communication with the south in winter time.

Mountainous landscape, rivers, quiet atmosphere, peace, Vall d'Aran is a must in your trip around Catalonia, don't forget it !
