Jacetania, Administrative division in northern Aragon, Spain.

The Jacetania territory stretches across 1,857 square kilometers of mountainous terrain, encompassing parts of both Huesca and Zaragoza provinces in northern Spain.

The region derives its name from the Iacetani, an ancient Iberian tribe who inhabited this area, and later became the foundation of the County of Aragon.

The comarca maintains traditional festivals throughout its municipalities, celebrating agricultural practices and regional customs that span generations of mountain communities.

The administrative capital Jaca serves as the main hub for the region's 18,664 residents, providing essential services and connections to neighboring French territories.

The territory contains two major ski resorts, Astún and Candanchú, offering over 100 kilometers of slopes in the Pyrenees mountain range.
