(at the end of the text in French)

A natural route where you can discover history, legends and customs of the inhabitants of Banyoles.

On this route to the lake we will be able to learn about the traces of the ancient settlers who lived in the area in ancient times. We will listen to the legends anchored in tradition, we will delve into the landscapes and we will learn what life is like in Banyoles through its greatest source of wealth: the lake.

We will learn how the town was founded and how water was brought, how people lived around the lake and we will visit the forest where the legend of the Foundation of Banyoles was born.

We will follow the perimeter of the lake on a flat and well-defined path , among the singing of birds and the sounds of green-necked ducks in the crystal clear water.
