Once upon a time, there was a village linked to a lake. Many years ago, Sils Lake was the largest one in Catalonia. Today, very little is left of that immense spread of water. However history, culture and the life of the people in this municipality are based around it. Jump onto your bicycle or put on a comfortable pair of shoes. You choose how to get around this landscape and discover the legends and the secrets still hidden in the land around Sils. A good way of doing this is by following the irrigation channel that was constructed to dry out the lake and to thereby gain land for crops.
