The Estany de Sant Maurici with the Encantats Peak in the background is undoubtedly the most emblematic image of the National Park and one of the best-known postcards of the Catalan Pyrenees. In summer, the aggressiveness of the rock of the Encantats contrasts with the tranquility of the lake’s waters. In winter, on the other hand, the white of the snow unifies the entire landscape. Any time of the year is special to enjoy this photogenic landscape.

The park has more than 40,000 hectares, divided into 4 counties and 4 valleys. Thus, to the east we find Valls d’Àneu (Espot, Pallars Sobirà), to the south theVall Fosca (Pallars Jussà), to the west the Boi valley (Alta Ribagorça) and to the north the Val d’Aran.

Most of the territory exceeds 1,000 meters with peaks of up to 3,000 meters, where the valleys and lakes were formed during the Quaternary Glaciation.

La mata de Valencia, the largest expanse of black pine.

The Valencia forest located on the slopes of the Àneu valleys is the largest expanse of black pine in all of Europe.
