Even the fish flee from the river

While waiting to see to what extent the rains brought by the Ciarán storm are noticeable, this autumn morning the Ter and Ges rivers still showed the serious consequences of the drought: the second looked like a meadow and the first was below minimum levels.

It even seems that the fish want to flee due to the lack of water, as shown in one of the photographs in this report in La Vanguardia's Readers' Photos.

The Ter river rises in Ulldeter at 2,480 meters of altitude, at the foot of a glacial cirque in the Pyrenean region of Ripollès, very close to the town of Setcases.

These snapshots have been captured on the Vora Ter path in Torelló, a route that extends for 20 kilometers accompanying the river through small towns to the town of Manlleu.

The Ges river is a tributary of the Ter, which flows into its main river in the municipality of Torelló, slightly south of Sant Pere de Torelló.

However, despite being a tributary of a larger river, the Ges also has its own rivers that flow into it, especially the Fornès, which flows into Sant Pere de Torelló itself.
