Falles
Nevertheless, Alta Ribagorça is the region with the most Falles villages in the Catalan territory. The "Baixada de Falles" has been a deeply rooted tradition in the villages of Alta Ribagorça since ancient times. The falles are resinous trunks about two meters long, which are prepared a few days before so that they are ready on the day of the “baixada” also known as descent. The falles descent start from a high place in the mountain, visible from the village, where a pine tree called "far" has been planted, which is where the falles are lit before starting the descent.
