    Great landscape

      It is worth leaving the path for a few meters, passing the fence and contemplating the landscape of the Catalan side.
      When you get back to riding, enjoy the track for the few kilometers you have left on the bike. At the next pass (of the 3 beech trees) you will have to dismount and push the bike for a few hours!

        Through the Coll de Banyuls, formerly called the Coll d'Espills, one of the routes that connected southern Catalonia, l'Empordà, with northern Catalonia, el Rosselló, ran. It was one of the three passes, the central one, that the Visigoth king Wamba used to cross the Serra de l'Albera in the direction of Septimania. It went up from the Roussillon coast towards the mountains through the Ravaner valley. To its west, another step was through the Vall de Sant Martí, towards the Torre de la Maçana and the Coll de la Carbassera, and to the east, towards Cotlliure via the Coll de la Farella.
