Porqueres (Pla de lŽEstany)

To the west of Estany de Banyoles is the municipality of Porqueres, a land of legends and forest fairies.Here we find the Estunes (an area with many attractions for visitors of all ages), the legend of the fairies, the living stone of Travertino and the mysterious cracks in the ground. The town also maintains an outstanding gem from Catalan Romanesque heritage: the church of Santa Maria de Porqueres.
The area also includes several villages: Mata and las Pedreres to the south, Miànigues to the east, Pujarnol to the west, Usall to the north and Merlant.
