Baix Llobregat Nord

Baix Llobregat Nord is a natural subregion in northwestern Catalonia that stretches along the southwestern foothills of the Montserrat mountain range. The area comprises fourteen municipalities spread across rolling landscapes positioned between Bages, Baix Llobregat, Anoia, and Vallés Occidental.

The region received formal recognition in 1924 when J. Rendé included it in Catalonia's social agrarian organization plan. This early mapping helped establish the various towns and communities as a connected economic and geographic space.

The municipalities within Baix Llobregat Nord maintain strong connections through shared administrative services, including the Martorell judicial system and various local agencies.

Martorell serves as the main administrative center where visitors can access government offices and public services for the region. The fourteen municipalities are connected by roads that follow the valley terrain and mountain approaches.

Local communities have suggested renaming the area to Montserratí to reflect its proximity to the iconic Montserrat mountain range. This proposal reveals how residents connect their regional identity to the distinctive geographical features that shape the landscape.
