Activity Overview
Half Day tour to Catalonia’s most emblematic mountain. Topped by a Benedictine Monastery, Montserrat is an ideal half-day trip to spend a fun day in nature, just a few kilometres away from Barcelona. On the way to the Monastery, admire the Massif of Montserrat, a spectacular multi-peaked rocky range packed of unique needle-shape formations. Upon arrival, visit the Monastery, which was founded in the 10th century and still functions to this day, with over 150 monks. It is also well-known for hosting the figure of La Moreneta (the dark one), who is the patron saint of Catalonia.
Next, descend to a nearby equestrian centre on the Montserrat Cable Car enjoying the beautiful views on the way, located at the foothill of the Massif. Get ready for a thrilling horseback ride along the Natural Park, offering breath-taking views of Montserrat. All while enjoying the freedom and tranquillity of the countryside.
