Vila: CG2 - PK 3+940 (Boca sud túnel Radio Andorra) /1.207 metres
Vila has served as a rural settlement in the parish of Encamp since the Middle Ages. It occupies the narrow Valira d’Orient valley, one of the principal corridors through central Andorra, where the valley floor is shared by homes, local businesses and the CG-2 road. This route links Andorra la Vella with Encamp and continues northeast toward Pas de la Casa and the French frontier. Forested slopes rise sharply from the developed strip, explaining the compact pattern of settlement. Vila retains a link to the country’s Romanesque heritage in the church of Sant Romà de Vila, while its setting today is closely tied to the capital area’s road network.

Among the countries of the eastern Pyrenees, Andorra stands out for its high mountain valleys and Catalan character. Set between France and Spain, this landlocked state is crossed by the Valira river system, whose valleys concentrate its towns, roads and much of everyday life. Catalan is the official language, and the capital, Andorra la Vella, brings together government, commerce and mountain access. In the east, the Madriu-Perafita-Claror Valley is inscribed on UNESCO’s World Heritage List as a cultural landscape shaped over centuries by pastoral use. Winter sports are central to the national calendar, while hiking and cycling take over when the snow recedes.
