Embark on a scenic hike in Montserrat with a mountain guide. Experience the beauty of nature, take in stunning views, and gain some knowledge about Catalonia. Spend a fantastic time in the open air and return to Barcelona just in time to bask in the city’s evening allure.
- Santa Maria de Montserrat Abbey - Join me for an exciting and rewarding hike around iconic Montserrat. After arriving at the Benedictine monastery from the 11th century we simply set off to explore some beautiful encounters of this Natural Park.
As a professional mountain leader, I have a number of hiking routes available to suit everyone’s appetite. However, all participants should expect to spend somewhere between 3-5 hours of hiking in the mountain terrain. Decent physical fitness, as well as comfortable walking/hiking shoes, are required in order to have the best possible experience.
While exploring the magical conglomerate formations, and small trails winding through dense boxwood vegetation, we will chat about Catalan culture, the history of this place, and countless exciting topics from this region. As we progress deeper into the mountain we might bump into the ‘Alpine Ibex’, a wild mountain goat, and spot some birds of prey.
The visit to Montserrat would not be complete without seeing the majestic Basilica and the Black Saint Virgin - La Moreneta.
On the way out from the Monastery, we will stop at the small farmer’s market and try some delicious locally produced cheeses, honey, and more.
