Activity itinerary

Lake Banyoles

Enjoy a guided tour around the largest natural lake in Catalonia while discovering its origin and history. The tour follows the trail that surrounds it and allows you to know how this singular landscape was formed, who were its first inhabitants and the stories and legends that are still part of the local memory.

Les Estunes de Banyoles

You will explore hidden corners such as Les Estunes, a forest of travertine cracks surrounded by mystery, where nature mixes with ancient local legends that speak of the goges, the lake fairies.

Font de la Puda

You will also visit the Font Pudosa, an ancient 19th century spa known for its sulphurous waters with supposed medicinal properties. Although today it is disused, it is still a curious place with a lot of history, surrounded by nature and wrapped in a nostalgic air.

Placa Major

You will walk through the old town of Banyoles, a maze of alleys with centuries of history. You will discover the Plaça Major with its medieval porches, the Gothic church of Santa Maria dels Turers and spaces full of life such as El Tint, where the fabrics were dyed. And if you come on a Wednesday morning, you will cross the lively weekly market, full of colours, aromas and local products that give life to the square. In the heart of the old town, try one of the most famous delicacies in the province of Girona: xuixo, a delicious baked dough cake filled with pastry cream. A walk that reveals the soul of a town shaped by water and time.
