The route brings us up close to landscapes with unique natural elements, and is largely included in the Estany de Banyoles Natural Interest Area. It crosses an important water area. In the initial section it follows the Ter, then the Terri river, borders the Estany de Banyoles and brings us near the Clot d'Espolla (a temporary flood pond) and to the agricultural and forestry area of the Pla d'Usall. The Pla de l'Estany route is inspired by the old train route that started from Palamós and linked to Girona and Banyoles. The second part of the route was used by the train known as the Pinxo, very popular among locals. The current route recovers some parts of the train track, and much of it is new tracks close to the old ones, now beneath the asphalt of the C-66. This route also connects with sections of the Carrilet I Route (Girona-Olot) and the Carrilet II Route (Girona - Sant Feliu de Guíxols).
