• Abadia de Montserrat - Embark on a journey to the mystical Montserrat mountain.

This natural park, known for its unique peaks, preserves the spiritual heart of Catalonia. For nearly a millennium, a Benedictine community has resided in these mountains, situated 60 km from Barcelona.

Explore the Basilica of Montserrat, home to the tranquil Black Virgin of Montserrat (the renowned “Moreneta”), the patron saint of Catalonia, a polychrome Romanesque sculpture from the 12th century.

Along the way, hear fascinating tales about Catalonia and its connection to this sacred mountain, a pilgrimage site since ancient times and part of the route to Santiago de Compostela. Your guide will provide essential insights to help you appreciate the heritage you’ll encounter during the tour.

• Montana de Montserrat - Upon reaching the monastery, numerous options await, and your guide will tailor the experience to your interests. We suggest a leisurely 30-minute walk to take in some of the most breathtaking views of the natural park, though you can also choose from other activities the mountain offers.
• Funicular de Sant Joan - Opt for a ride on the rack railway to ascend to the summit of the holy mountain, enjoying spectacular views along the way.
• Sant Jeroni - Climb to the peak of the sacred mountain for a panoramic view of the entire Montserrat Monastery and the natural park. On clear days, you can see all of Catalunya.
• Aeri de Montserrat - If you forgo the funicular, take the cable car for a stunning journey over the Llobregat River and Valley, up the mountain, and directly to Montserrat Monastery.

For those unafraid of heights, this will be an unforgettable and rewarding experience.

• Montserrat Museum - If interested, visit the Montserrat museum, which features an extensive collection of early paintings from the 13th to the 18th centuries, including works by El Greco, Caravaggio, and a significant collection of Catalan art with major artists like Picasso, Dalí, and Miró, as well as French impressionists such as Chagall, Braque, and Le Corbusier.
