Selva, Administrative division in Catalonia, Spain.
La Selva encompasses 26 municipalities across 995 square kilometers, stretching from the Mediterranean coastline to the Guilleries mountains in northeastern Spain.
The region developed from medieval settlements, with municipalities like Hostalric maintaining their original defensive walls and Santa Coloma de Farners serving as the capital.
Each municipality in La Selva maintains distinct Catalan traditions through local festivals, gastronomy, and celebrations throughout the calendar year.
The AP-7 motorway connects all major towns in La Selva, while the Girona-Costa Brava Airport provides international access just 15 minutes from Santa Coloma.
The comarca contains the Susqueda reservoir, storing 223 million cubic meters of water for drinking supplies and electricity generation for the entire region.
