The municipality of Pla de Santa Maria, located in the heart of the Cistercian Route, offers all visitors an interesting historical and natural legacy that must be discovered.

Very well it located and communicated. It has access to the AP-2 highway, several roads pass by, a bus service (which connects with Valls and Tarragona ), and a taxi service.

The Pla district has a large concentration of dry stone constructions, buildings that defy the passage of time, and that are the testimony of a bygone era.

Stone as the only material to separate farms, to lay out paths, to provide shelter, to take advantage of water to make the maximum with the minimum.

The Capona Route allows you to discover a magnificent and surprising environment, past and heritage, showing visitors the art of stone and the beauty of the place. You have to contemplate everything: the constructions, the stones, the details, the plants, the crops, the trees, the colors, the shapes... and let yourself be seduced.

For almost two kilometers, on a flat path, we find huts, buckets, baskets, margins, hiding places, etc. The Cossiol del Soleta stands out, a construction intended for the use of rainwater, completely unique for its originality and beauty.

The itinerary can be done either on foot or by bicycle, and a section coincides with the GR-Cistercian Route, and with the local trail "A walk through the term, walking along the royal roads."
