Girona’s railway line remembers the way to the sea

Carrilet II turns a low-gradient transport corridor into a gradual transition from city to cork forest and coast.

Tour de Fun editorial

Carrilet II leaves Girona with the certainty of an old railway. The grade stays gentle while the landscape changes from urban edge to villages and cork-oak country, finally reaching the Mediterranean. That slow transformation makes the route satisfying: no single viewpoint has to carry the day because the whole line keeps changing.
