TheTêt (French:[tɛt]ⓘ;Catalan:Tet[ˈtɛt]) is the largestriver inPyrénées-Orientales, southwesternFrance. It is 115 kilometres (71 mi) long.[1] The Têt has its source at the foot of the Puig de la Cometa de l'Espagne in theCarlit massif in the easternPyrenees. It crosses thePyrénées-Orientalesdépartement (Northern Catalonia) from West to East and ends in theMediterranean Sea, nearPerpignan (Catalan:Perpinyà).[2]

Puig de la Cometa de l'Espagne (2,763m). Below, on the right: the upper part of the Têt valley (here known as thevallée de la Grava).

A staircase offluvial terraces of the Têt [fr] along the length of the valley has been studied in detail.[3]

Llonat sits on a well-conserved vestige of an alluvial terrace of the Têt, about 100 metres above the river. It is thought that the terrace was formed just over half a million years ago. In the distance: the Pic du Canigou.
