Harana/Valle de Arana

Village · Harana/Valle de Arana, Cuadrilla de Campezo-Montaña Alavesa, Álava

Municipality of 212 inhabitants (2025), compared to the nearly 800 it had in 1942, the year it was formed by the merger of three municipalities, with its capital at Alda. Contrasta received a charter from Alfonso X in 1256, while San Vicente de Arana was formed around 1312-1319 by residents fleeing feudal obligations elsewhere. It lies at 812 m in altitude, watered by the Uyarra river, on the border with Navarre.
