Full description

The experience starts in the upper part of Passeig de Gràcia, before journeying to experience the natural splendor of Montserrat, Catalonia’s most emblematic mountain. You can define Montserrat with these three words: relaxing, serene and introspective.

This is the perfect experience for those who want to spend an intensive day in Nature, just a few kilometers away from Barcelona. An ideal half-day trip!

On the way to the Monastery (the Montserrat Abbey), admire the Massif of Montserrat, a spectacular multi-peaked rocky range packed of unique needle-shape formations. These are visible from a great distance and are absolutely imposing.

Upon arrival, visit this stunning Monastery, which was founded in the 10th century and still functions to this day, with over 150 monks. Your guide will bring history alive by explaining the roots and ventures of this Monastery dating nearly a thousand years!

Also, board a funicular railway to observe the area’s fascinating flora and fauna following a trail (soft trekking) with the best-specialized guide in Montserrat Natural Park. Enjoy a 1-hour trek to admire the spectacular views from the top of the mountain.

Efficient and scenic tour

We had such a wonderful time on this tour. Our guide Alvaro was kind and willing to answer all our questions and tell us about the most interesting details of the tour. It was great not to worry about getting to the mountain or pay individually for all the transportation methods we took, and we could just enjoy ourselves and the beauty around us.
