This relatively short valley, drained by Ruf de Dona, is located south of the Duron Valley.

The volcanic rock outcrops stretches from Fostiac Alp, between the mounts DΓ² Ciuril (Docioril) in the southwest and Ponjin in the north, to the head of the valley and beyond (Camerloi locality in Udai Valley).
