Activity description

Come and discover the Natural Park of Montserrat and its abbey on this hiking tour with panoramic views!

Just 1 hour inland from Barcelona, you will find Montserrat Natural Park, one of the most emblematic massifs in Catalonia, surrounded by the Llobregat and Noya rivers. Its many steep mountains, spires and rocky ridges make Montserrat Natural Park very interesting from an orographic point of view and make it a place of interest for hiking, climbing and caving enthusiasts. But without a doubt, the great attraction of this park is the Monastery-Abbey of Montserrat, built in the 12th century and home to La Moreneta.

The Tours by Uni team will take you to discover this curious abbey at an altitude of 720 metres in the Catalan mountains on a guided tour. From the centre of Barcelona, they will take you in their van to Montserrat. There you can visit the abbey, where the patron saint of Catalonia, La Moreneta, is located. You will then take the Sant Joan funicular to the Vos Sou viewpoint for spectacular views of the abbey, the Pyrenees and the Mediterranean Sea, from where you will start a one-hour route with panoramic views. You will then have free time in the monastery area to stroll around and visit the local markets.

A hiking tour of Montserrat with a cultural touch that will give you a different view of Barcelona!
