Montana de Montserrat
The Rocky Massif of Montserrat has been declared as Natural Park in 1987, and characterised by the rounded shape of its peaks. This incredible 4000-foot wonder is easily recognizable by its ''serrated'' top from which it got his name. Once you reach the monastery, you have plenty of options and your guide will always adjust to your interests. We invite you to take an easy walk of around 30 min to enjoy one of the most astonishing views of the natural park, but if you wish you can also decide to enjoy other activities that the mountain offers.
Abadia de Montserrat
Montserrat Basilica, located in the stunning Montserrat mountain range in Catalonia, Spain, is a revered site of pilgrimage and natural beauty. Known for housing the famous statue of the Black Madonna, La Moreneta, the basilica is a significant spiritual and cultural landmark. Its breathtaking setting amidst rocky cliffs offers panoramic views of the surrounding landscape, making it a popular destination for both worshippers and tourists alike. Visitors can explore the basilica's rich history, beautiful architecture, and serene atmosphere, all while experiencing the spiritual energy that has drawn people since 12th century.

Javi was a fantastic guide! Very informative but also left us time to explore on our own. I would definitely book another tour with him.

Montserrat Monastery is a good place to explore history and nature . The hiking experience after taking the Funicular is worth the money paid to the Funicular . Ideally , take one way up and then walk back the monastery.Javi did a good tour guide job !

We had a great time with our tour operator Ramon in Monserrat Monastery. He is very experienced and knowledgable tour operator. We recommend Ramon to anyone who wants to have a good tour and great tour operator in Barcelona, Spain (vicinity).

We had an amazing experience today thanks to Vincent and Joaquín, our guides at Montserrat. Both of them were incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and attentive. They explained the history, culture, and hidden stories of Montserrat in a very engaging way, and made sure everyone in the group was comfortable throughout the tour. Their passion for the place truly made the visit special. Thanks to their guidance, we enjoyed breathtaking views, learned so much, and felt very well taken care of from start to finish. Highly recommended — Vincent and Joaquín made our Montserrat trip unforgettable. Thank you both! 🙏
