Ulldeter, Glacial cirque in Setcases, Spain.

Ulldeter forms a natural amphitheater with steep cliffs and a bowl-shaped depression carved into the mountain by ancient glacial movements.

The cirque developed during the last ice age when massive ice sheets shaped the Pyrenees Mountains through continuous erosion processes.

Local shepherds traditionally used the natural walls of Ulldeter as protection for their flocks during summer grazing seasons in the mountains.

The cirque contains multiple hiking trails that connect to the larger network of paths across the Pyrenees mountain range.

The depression floor features a seasonal tarn that forms from melting snow, creating a natural water reservoir in the mountain landscape.
