Montserrat Monastery and Hiking Tour From Barcelona

Embark on a scenic 50-minute drive from Barcelona to reach the historic Benedictine Abbey, an architectural gem founded in the 11th century. This abbey houses Catalonia’s Patroness Saint, The Black Madonna, an enduring symbol of spirituality and community unity.

Following the abbey visit, ascend to the mountain’s summit via an invigorating hike. Here, a majestic panoramic view of Montserrat’s Natural Park unfolds, revealing Catalonia’s stunning landscapes from a bird’s eye perspective. Gaze across the Mediterranean Sea, the country’s primary valley, and the distant Pyrenees, tracing the French border.

Walk along ancient pilgrimage paths, connecting with the history of Montserrat as you explore its diverse flora and fauna. Witness the remarkable emergence of inner mysterious waters from the heart of the massif, revealed through rocky pillars and ravines.

Upon descending to the Monastery area, enjoy free time to explore the local farmer’s market, where regional treasures await discovery. Your enriching journey concludes as we head back to Barcelona, leaving you with unforgettable memories of Montserrat’s beauty.
