In The Photos of the Readers of La Vanguardia we can see the appearance of the Salt de Sallent after the last rains in Catalonia, images that can also be used to gauge a slight improvement after the persistent drought of recent months.

The free fall of Salt de Sallent is the largest waterfall in the Catalan territory, with a height of about 100 meters.

"Sallent" is a word that originally means precisely "jump". Hence the name of the Salt de Sallent waterfall, which is also very popular among canyoners.

To enjoy this spectacle, you have to go to the Rupit stream, which is a tributary of the River Ter on its left side and which is born from a set of springs and torrents originating in the upper areas of the Collsacabra mountain range.

We can also see the Sau and Susqueda swamps. The first above all, one of the great symbols of the drought in Catalonia. In these images we can see them covered in fog in the early stages of the day.
