Lake Banyoles

Highlight • Lake

Lake of Banyoles is located in northeastern Catalonia, Spain and is the region's largest natural lake, covering approximately 1.575 square kilometers. Formed over 250,000 years ago due to tectonic activity, it is fed by subterranean channels with natural in/outflow. Surrounded by green hills the lake is a popular destination for rowing. The lake hosted the rowing competitions during the 1992 Barcelona Olympics. Its clear waters and scenic surroundings make it a favored spot for swimming, boating, and hiking.

View of the Rocacorba Sanctuary

Highlight • Religious Site

All the times that I had crowned Rocacorba with a road bike, I had never taken the time or had enough curiosity to approach the sanctuary. You have to follow a forest track for a few meters and you can see the Sanctuary of Rocacorba. Another mystical corner where my most adventurous soul sprouts.

Rocacorba Viewpoint

Highlight • Viewpoint

After a great effort, the best possible reward is the views from the Rocacorba viewpoint. The panoramic view that can be seen of the Estany de Banyoles, the Montgrí Castle, the Illas Medas and Les Gavarras is wonderful. A classic viewpoint for all cycling lovers.
