After La Fageda, the route continues to Santa Pau, a medieval village with cobbled streets and an exceptionally beautiful porticoed square. From here, we continue along secondary roads that pass through El Sallent and Santa Maria del Collell, alternating between stretches of forest and open fields with views of the Serra de Rocacorba. The track climbs gently to Collet de Guixeres and then begins a descent through the forest until it reaches the lake of Banyoles basin.
