introduction
Site of the 1992 Barcelona Olympic rowing events, the town of Banyoles is situated on a beautiful blue volcanic lake, which is fed by warm underground springs. Take a cycle tour around the lake or test your skills with an afternoon of woodland orienteering. There are numerous options available for those who want to take to the water from a swimming dock to pedalo hire or a network of shady footpaths for those who prefer the shore. Visit Catalunya's capital, Barcelona, and enjoy the Gaudi architecture or Nou Camp Stadium. The combination of traditional coastal fishing villages and Banyoles' weekly market add to the quintessential charm of the area. There's so much to see in this attractive area of the Costa Brava that you'll definitely never be bored!
