Breathtaking views, little traffic.

One of the many old train stations alongside the Ruta del Carrilet. They all do have their own story.

Spicy fountains were traditionally known in Catalonia for their health and healing properties. Natural carbonated water was believed to have beneficial effects on digestion and other health problems. The water usually has a carbon dioxide (CO₂) content that gives it that effervescent touch and a special flavour.

During the time when the Carrilet train was in operation (late 19th century and much of the 20th century), many stations were named after characteristic elements of the area, such as farmhouses, rivers or fountains. The Font Picant was a reference point in the area, and travellers could stop to rest and enjoy the water from the fountain.

"SFG" symbology: The initials on the side, SFG, refer to "Sant Feliu de Guíxols", the final point of the route, where it is now displayed as a monument. Despite the years, this locomotive has been preserved as a tribute to the impact of the Carrilet in the region, highlighting the importance of the railway in economic and social development.

The Carrilet locomotive, manufactured by Henschel & Sohn, was designed for the green line, its speed was 30-40 km/h, being ideal for the curves and gradients between Girona and Sant Feliu de Guíxols. Operational from 1892 to 1969.
