The Altiplà del Lluçanès is a plateau of 368 km² located between the Plana de Vic and the Berguedà, bordering the Pre-Pyrenees, which gives its name to the Lluçanès region and slopes from 900-1,000 metres altitude in the north-east down to 450-550 in the south-west. Its climate is Mediterranean with a continental tendency, tempered by altitude, with an average temperature of about 12 degrees. It is watered by streams such as the Merlès, Lluçanès and Gavarresa, tributaries of the Ter and the Llobregat. The plateau comprises eight municipalities - Alpens, Lluçà, Olost, Oristà, Perafita, Prats de Lluçanès, Sant Martí d'Albars and Sobremunt - with a density of barely 21 inhabitants per square kilometre and a total population of 5,586 inhabitants in 2022.
