Banyoles ({{IPA|ca|bəˈɲɔləs}}) is a city of 20,168 inhabitants (2021) located in the province of Girona in northeastern Catalonia, Spain.

The town is the capital of the Catalan comarca "Pla de l'Estany". Although an established industrial centre many of the inhabitants commute to the nearby city of Girona (12 km to the south).

Banyoles was connected to Girona by the {{RailGauge|750mm}} gauge Palamós–Girona–Banyoles railway, which reached it by 1928. Service on the line continued until 1956.{{cite web |url=https://callcarlos.eu/2022/05/03/railways-girona-costa-brava/ |title=Railways in Catalunya |publisher=callCarlos |access-date=21 November 2022 |archive-date=21 November 2022 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20221121151321/https://callcarlos.eu/2022/05/03/railways-girona-costa-brava/}}{{cite web |title=Petit Train Greenway |work=viasverdes.com |url=https://www.viasverdes.com/en/itineraries/itinerario.asp?id=162 |access-date=23 November 2022 |archive-date=23 November 2022 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20221123114109/https://www.viasverdes.com/en/itineraries/itinerario.asp?id=162}}
