Carrilet Greenway

Highlight • Cycleway

The Carrilet II greenway is a 39.7 km long greenway, with a gentle slope from Girona to San Felíu de Guixols (15 m) that reaches its highest point in Cassà de la Selva (136 m). Following the route of the old Girona – San Felíu de Guixols narrow-gauge train, the itinerary allows you to discover the Gironés and Bajo Ampurdán regions, from the Ter river basin to the Ridaura valley, passing through the Selva depression. The Carrilet II Greenway Nature Trail is included in the Nature Trail Network of the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food.

The peculiarity of the route of the railway from San Felíu de Guixols to Girona is the smoothness of slopes and curves. Its route is formed by a sinuous line mathematically drawn on the territory. Leaving Girona, the route first crosses the La Selva depression, characterized by a mosaic landscape with alternating crops and mountains. The second half of the route runs through the Ridaura valley, which separates the Cadiretes massif, to the south, from the Gavarres massif and which, with a slight unevenness, leads to the sea right in the town of San Felíu de Guixols, a town cradle of the place name "Costa Brava".

Bridge over the Onyar

Highlight • Bridge

Bridge located on the greenway that connects Olot with Sant Feliu de Guixols. It is well worth doing, even in different sections, as it allows you to see very different landscapes throughout the province.

Girona

They say that Girona is the real capital of Catalonia. It is a cycling destination par excellence. In addition, it is symbolically a bridge for the start and end of routes that take you to dream places, mid-mountain (Gavarres), the coast (Costa Brava and Empordà), Mountain and high Mountain (Garrotxa, Ripollés, Pyrenees).

Riparian Forest of the Ter River in Sant Julià de Ramis

Highlight • Forest

As it passes through Pla de Can Font, you can enjoy the variety of plants and animals of this typical forest on the banks of the River Ter, in the municipality of Sant Julià de Ramis.

In this place we can find willows with twill (Saponario-salicetum purpurae), which occupy a notable extension, especially in the most frequently flooded places. Apart from the serge, there are other trees typical of the riverside forests, such as the alder (Alnus glutinosa), the black poplar (Populus nigra) or the white willow (Salix alba), etc.

Castell d'Aro station and historic steam locomotive

Highlight • Historical Site

The old Castell d'Aro station was part of the Carrilet route and was used to cross trains.
It is highly recommended to make a stop to visit the interior of the station where the stationmaster's office and the wooden structure of the ticket office are still preserved today.

April 23, 2023,Beach loop gravel

Beach loop gravel version. Very easy in terms of climbing, lots of via verde (easy rolling). One tarmac climb coming off the beach which is not too hard (and beautiful).
