Espot
Espot Township is located in the river valley Written, to the right of the Noguera Pallaresa. It is a glacial valley which contains a large number of lakes that flow into l'estany of Sant Maurici. The highest part of the valley, situated around the pool of Sant Maurici and Encantats els massif is part of the National Park and Lake Sant Aigüestortes Maurici.
