Pedraforca
Pedraforca is a mountain in the Pre-Pyrenees, located in the comarca of Berguedà. The mountain's rare form, along with the fact that it is not visibly connected to any other adjacent mountains or ridges, has made it one of the most famous and emblematic mountains in Catalonia, the northeasternmost region Spain. Description The mountain has a peculiar, forked shape composed of two parallel peaks (the ''pollegons'') joined by a neck (the ''enforcadura''). The loftier peak, called ''Pollegó superior'', has an elevation of 2,506.4 m, with a secondary peak, ''el Calderer'', at 2,496.4 m in height. The lower peak, the ''Pollegó inferior'' is 2,444.8 m tall, while the ''Enforcaduras highest point lies at 2,356.2 m, with a scree field (''tartera'' in Catalan) on both faces of the mountain. Location Located within the Cadí-Moixeró Natural Park, Pedraforca has been declared a Natural Site of National Interest by the Generalitat de Catalunya.
