The Encamp Valley (Catalan, Vall d'Encamp), also known as the East Valley (Catalan: Vall d'Orient) is located in the Andorran parish of Encamp, in the center of the country, northwest of its capital, Andorra la Vella. It is formed by the Valira d'Orient river and there are several towns, including Encamp (approximately 8,800 inhabitants) and Les Bons (1,180 inhabitants), at about 1,300 m (4,265 ft) above sea level. The road that leads to France through Pas de la Casa runs through it.
