La Tremada is a residential neighborhood in the parish of Encamp, located on the eastern edge of the town center. Geographically, it is perched on the valley slope, providing residents with excellent views of the Valira d'Orient river and the Les Bons historical site across the valley. The urban fabric is a mix of modern apartment buildings and older structures, showcasing the transition from historical to contemporary architecture. Historically, this area consisted of agricultural plots belonging to Encamp before undergoing urbanization during the population boom of the late 20th century. La Tremada is known for its quiet setting away from the CG-2 main road, while still being within walking distance of the parish's commercial core. Its proximity to the Funicamp makes it a popular location for winter sports enthusiasts. The surrounding slopes remain partially forested, offering small walking trails for locals. The neighborhood's growth is closely tied to Encamp's rise as a tourism and administrative hub.
