Vallès Occidental, Administrative division in Barcelona province, Spain

The comarca spreads across 583 square kilometers between the Catalan prelittoral depression and several mountain ranges, including Sant Llorenç de Munt massif.

The division of Vallès into Western and Eastern sections originated from the legal districts of Granollers and Terrassa established in 1834.

The region maintains dual capital cities, Sabadell and Terrassa, each contributing distinct architectural elements and industrial heritage to the area's identity.

The territory connects to Barcelona through multiple transportation networks, including FGC's Metro del Vallès and major motorways such as AP-7.

The comarca contains twenty-three municipalities, forming part of Barcelona's metropolitan area while preserving independent administrative structures and natural parks.
