The Aran Valley (; ; ) is a small valley (620.47
km²) in the
Pyrenees mountains and a
comarca (county) in the northwestern part of
Catalonia, which is a region of
Spain. It is the source of the
Garonne, and one of the highest valleys of the Pyrenees. Most of the valley constitutes the only Catalan territory on the north face of the Pyrenees, hence the only part of Catalonia whose waters drain into the
Atlantic Ocean. The region is characterized by an Atlantic climate, due to its peculiar orientation, which is different from other valleys in the area.
