Madriu-Perafita-Claror Valley
ANDORRA
The Madriu-Perafita-Claror Valley is a glacial valley in the southeast of Andorra. It covers an area of 42.47 square km, approximately 9% of the total area of Andorra, and is part of the second largest watershed basin in Andorra. The isolated valley is recognised as a haven for rare or endangered wildlife, and the undeveloped valley has recently been considered to be the "spiritual heart" of Andorra. The valley is a glacial landscape, with high pastures, craggy cliffs and steep wooded valleys.
