Alta Ribagorça (Catalan pronunciation: [aɫtə riβəˈɣorsə], locally: [ˈaɫta riβaˈɣoɾsa]) is one of the comarques of Catalonia, Spain. Its capital is Pont de Suert. The highest peak is the Comaloformo (3030 metres above sea level) in the massif of Bessiberri. Northeast of the region is the western part of the National Aiguas Tortas and Lake of San Mauricio. It is connected with the Aran valley thorough the Vielha tunnel.
