The ancestral identity of El Pallars Jussà has remained untouched by changing trends and fashions, as has the bond that its people have with the elements of fire and water that is truly remarkable.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/6″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1629975809590{margin-top: 0px !important;padding-top: 0px !important;}”][vc_column css=”.vc_custom_1629975819882{margin-top: 0px !important;padding-top: 0px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”6/12″][vc_column_text] The journey It is in this valley, in the foothills of the Pyrenees, that the river becomes the scene for an exhilarating adventure as the raiers (river rafters) begin their descent. Generations of Pallarsesos have worked to the ebb and flow of the river, transporting logs from the mountain forests to the settlements further downstream. Visitors will be able to immerse themselves in this long-established tradition on the Diada dels Raiers (Day of the River Rafters) when, every July, families and friends come together on the banks of the River Noguera Pallaresa to enjoy a festival that is a heartfelt tribute to the people of a bygone age. This respect for the land and its heritage is also the basis for the festival of the Falles (Flaming Torches): an ancient pagan ritual that still endures today, largely thanks to the efforts of the people of Jussà. During the Falles de la Mare de Déu de Ribera (Torches of Our Lady of Ribera), in June, visitors will have the chance to become one with the Pyrenees, for a time, through a mystical experience of fire and shadows. As they make their way down the mountain of Santa Magdalena, guided by red-hot beacons, they will feel that they are in a very special part of the world; one which has a very special and unique personality.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”6/12″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1635157245683{margin-bottom: 14px !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;}”] Not to be missed [/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner equal_height=”yes” css=”.vc_custom_1630054455050{margin-top: 4px !important;margin-bottom: 0px !important;border-top-width: 0px !important;border-bottom-width: 0px !important;padding-top: 0px !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;}”][vc_column_inner width=”9/12″ css=”.vc_custom_1629982630107{margin-top: 0px !important;margin-right: 0px !important;border-top-width: 0px !important;border-right-width: 0px !important;padding-top: 0px !important;padding-right: 0px !important;}”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1635157273564{margin-top: 0px !important;margin-right: 0px !important;margin-bottom: 3px !important;border-top-width: 0px !important;border-right-width: 0px !important;border-bottom-width: 0px !important;padding-top: 8px !important;padding-right: 0px !important;padding-bottom: 8px !important;padding-left: 30px !important;background-color: #ededed !important;}” el_class=”impresc”]Diada dels Raiers.  First Weekend in July.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”3/12″ css=”.vc_custom_1629982622928{margin-top: 0px !important;margin-left: 0px !important;border-top-width: 0px !important;border-left-width: 0px !important;padding-top: 0px !important;padding-left: 0px !important;}”][vc_single_image image=”112434″ img_size=”full” onclick=”link_image” css=”.vc_custom_1630316435383{margin-right: 0px !important;margin-left: 0px !important;border-right-width: 0px !important;border-left-width: 0px !important;padding-right: 0px !important;padding-left: 0px !important;}” el_class=”foto-patr”][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner equal_height=”yes” css=”.vc_custom_1630054455050{margin-top: 4px !important;margin-bottom: 0px !important;border-top-width: 0px !important;border-bottom-width: 0px !important;padding-top: 0px !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;}”][vc_column_inner width=”9/12″ css=”.vc_custom_1629982630107{margin-top: 0px !important;margin-right: 0px !important;border-top-width: 0px !important;border-right-width: 0px !important;padding-top: 0px !important;padding-right: 0px !important;}”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1635157291302{margin-top: 0px !important;margin-right: 0px !important;margin-bottom: 3px !important;border-top-width: 0px !important;border-right-width: 0px !important;border-bottom-width: 0px !important;padding-top: 8px !important;padding-right: 0px !important;padding-bottom: 8px !important;padding-left: 30px !important;background-color: #ededed !important;}” el_class=”impresc”]Falles de la Mare de Déu de la Ribera de la Pobla de Segur. 17th June.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”3/12″ css=”.vc_custom_1629982622928{margin-top: 0px !important;margin-left: 0px !important;border-top-width: 0px !important;border-left-width: 0px !important;padding-top: 0px !important;padding-left: 0px !important;}”][vc_single_image image=”112441″ img_size=”full” onclick=”link_image” css=”.vc_custom_1630316494618{margin-right: 0px !important;margin-left: 0px !important;border-right-width: 0px !important;border-left-width: 0px !important;padding-right: 0px !important;padding-left: 0px !important;}” el_class=”foto-patr”][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”6/12″][vc_column_text]A trip through the Intangible Heritage of El Pallars Jussà is not without its relaxing moments either. These can be as simple as sitting in a village square and learning some words of Pallarès. Although it sounds like a dialect belonging to a mythical past, visitors will quickly discover that it is a language which is very much alive and well. They will leave this area taking a potxó, or small reminder, of Jussà with them. In this reawakened language, the older people will explain to visitors the tales that were once told to them, by their padrins (grandparents), which include the legend of the Cova del Serpent (Serpent’s Cave). They say that on the way to the Monestir de Sant Pere de les Maleses (Monastery of St Peter of Les Maleses), there is a cave where a huge snake once lived and used to devour anyone, whether person or animal, who dared to pass by. However, it is only by going from door to door, in every village, that visitors will really find out all there is to know about the hidden magic of this area. [/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”6/12″][vc_row_inner equal_height=”yes” css=”.vc_custom_1630056473450{margin-top: 6px !important;margin-bottom: 0px !important;border-top-width: 0px !important;border-bottom-width: 0px !important;padding-top: 0px !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;}”][vc_column_inner css=”.vc_custom_1635149445725{margin-top: 0px !important;margin-right: 13px !important;border-top-width: 0px !important;border-right-width: 0px !important;padding-top: 0px !important;padding-right: 0px !important;}”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1635157311152{margin-top: 0px !important;margin-right: 0px !important;margin-bottom: 3px !important;border-top-width: 0px !important;border-right-width: 0px !important;border-bottom-width: 0px !important;padding-top: 8px !important;padding-right: 0px !important;padding-bottom: 8px !important;padding-left: 30px !important;background-color: #ededed !important;}” el_class=”impresc”]Dialecte Pallarès.
