Ascend Montserrat by Funicular

The Montserrat funicular offers a profoundly spiritual ascent, climbing a near-vertical 65.5% cliffside into a world of serene, breathtaking silence. At the 1,000-meter summit, engineering marvel, a sweeping sense of awe takes over as your eyes stretch from the snow-capped Pyrenees to the glistening Mediterranean Sea, with the ancient monastery cradled below. This heavenly vantage point serves as your gateway to the mountain's most sacred hiking paths. You can instantly step onto the trail to the ruins of ancient hermitages, follow the scenic path to the San Joan chapel, or embark on the rewarding trek to Sant Jeroni, the mountain's highest peak.
