Espolla
Municipality of Alt Empordà, which extends from the southern slope of the Albera mountain range, between the Pastores mountain (1173m) and the Sallafort peak (989m) up to the petition strip at the beginning of the Empordà plain. It includes a large part of the upper Orlina valley and, in the southern part, the head of the Merdanç.
The mountainous sector is full of forests (cork oaks, oaks, beeches, heather, rockrose). The crops, in the sector of the plain, are rainfed: vineyards, olive trees and some forage. The agricultural cooperative is one of the oldest in Catalonia and its wines and oils are famous throughout the region.
