Full description

Take a day trip from Barcelona to visit Monserat. Take in the mountain views, visit the famous monastery, then head to a local farmhouse for a delicious dinner.

Begin in the upper part of Passeig de Gràcia. Then journey to the natural splendor of Montserrat, Catalonia’s most emblematic mountain topped by a Benedictine Monastery. Montserrat is an ideal trip to spend a day in nature, just a few kilometers away from Barcelona.

En route to the Monastery, admire the Massif of Montserrat, a multi-peaked rocky range packed with needle-shaped formations. Upon arrival, visit the Monastery, which was founded in the 10th century and still functions with 150 monks to this day. 

It famously hosts the dark figure of La Moreneta, who is the patron saint of Catalonia. Your guide will explain the Monastery's history, which dates back nearly a thousand years. After the visit, you will have free time to buy a souvenir and take pictures.

Next, visit a farmhouse with stunning views. Enjoy a delicious 3-course menu; consisting of salad, barbecued food (with vegetarian and halal options), and dessert. Following this adventurous day, return to the center of Barcelona by private transport.

Our guide Marti was THE BEST!!!! We had a small group with people from all around the world. She was able to include everyone (my 12 yo son and I) and made us all feel like friends. Her knowledge of the area and engaging way of delivering it was excellent. We all felt so relaxed, open to ask questions, and had a great time. My son said this activity was his favorite of the trip!! Everyone should try to build this location into their visit. It was so lovely!

We loved this excursion! The bus was lovely and scenery up the mountain was great. The church and monastery were incredible and i was so spiritually touched by the Back Madonna. The trolley down the mountain and then the great dinner were perfect! Our guide Pablo was wonderful!

This was an amazing experience. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable, they provided interesting information throughout the Montserrat, mountains and the Moreneta. The views were amazing and it was such a beautiful hike, it wasn’t hard either and it was mostly downhill . It was easy to reach the meeting point. I highly recommend this. If you love Barcelona, you will love this too!
