Cows graze in lush pastures below well-wooded hillsides and rocky slopes where a few patches of snow resist the late June sunshine warming the eastern Pyrenees village of El Serrat in the Ordino Valley, Andorra.
El Serrat, Ordino Valley, Andorra: patchy of snow defies late June sunshine on the rugged slopes above wooded hillsides and cattle grazing in lush summer meadows around this small village in the Catalan-speaking eastern Pyrenees. El Serrat, in Ordino parish, lies at an altitude of 1,540 meters (5,100 ft) at the confluence of two rivers. It is the sixth and last village on the 14-km road that leads from the town of Ordino to the popular ski resort of Ordino Arcalís. Above El Serrat, the outstanding natural beauty of the mountainous landscape is preserved by an official ban on all new housing development.
