Vinutí

Vinutí is a fictional municipality in the northern highlands of the country of Valenia. It sits along the Vinutí River, a winding watercourse that shapes local agriculture and milling.

The municipality covers about 35 square kilometers and has a population of roughly 4,500 residents. The terrain includes mixed forests, small farms, and rolling hills that rise toward the foothills of the Brumea range.

The name Vinutí is derived from the vernacular term vinout meaning "to wind" and reflects the river's bends and the town’s traditional crafts.

The economy is mixed: agriculture (notably apples and hops), timber, and small manufacturing. Tourism centers on nature trails and the annual Vinutí Craft Market, which features rope-making and weaving. Local culture emphasizes craft, seasonal festivals, and folk music, with events that highlight the town’s historical connection to river-based industries.

Vinutí is governed by a mayor and a nine-member town council. It has a primary school, a clinic, a post office, and a public library. Regional services are provided from Nortia, the nearby city. The municipality maintains a network of local roads and a small bus service that connects to larger regional routes.

Notable landmarks include the Old Mill Tower, a Stone Bridge over the Vinutí River, and a 19th-century waterworks along the riverbank. These sites are cited in regional guides as examples of the town’s historical infrastructure and engineering.
