Baltanás is a municipality located in the province of Palencia, Castile and León, Spain. According to the 2021 census (INE), the municipality had a population of 1,219 inhabitants.
== Etymology == The name Baltanás is derived from the evolution of Valle de Atanasio (Atanasio Valley). During the reign of Alfonso VII, in the year 1135, it was commonly named "Valle de Valtanás". In the year 1145 the word "valley" disappeared. Later, over time, the initial "V" was replaced by a "B", becoming the current toponym, "Baltanás".
