SPAIN ~ Puigcerdà - La Cerdanya - Catalonia ~

.... Lovely view of a small mountain town and the capital of the beautiful region of Cerdanya... located
in the long and flat Cerdanya valley surrounded by forests, meadows with rivers, glacial lakes and high rugged mountains... the Pyrenees, limestone faces of the Serra del Cadí and the Cadí-Moixeró Natural Park which is contained within the range... it is the perfect place for sports lovers as there you can do hiking, cycling, mountain biking and many other activities in this wonderful surroundings... Thanks a lot Josep&Assumpta! ヽ(•‿•)ノ

Puigcerdà  is located in the province of Girona, Catalonia, northern Spain, near the Segre River and on the border with France. The county of Cerdanya has its origin in the Spanish Marches established by Charlemagne. In the 9th century, Cerdanya was one of the lordships united in the person of the counts of Barcelona, who were also counts of Girona, Narbonne, and Urgell. Puigcerdà was founded in 1178 by King Alfonso I of Aragon, Count of Barcelona.
