What To Expect

Abadia de Montserrat

Get on the road and head to the mystic mountain of Montserrat.

This natural park, with its very peculiar peaks, protects the spiritual essence of Catalonia. For almost 1,000 years, a Benedictine community has lived in these mountains located 60 km away from Barcelona.

Visit the Basilica of Montserrat, house of the serene image of the Black Virgin of Montserrat (the famous “Moreneta”), the saint patron of Catalonia, a polychrome Romanesque carving of the 12th century.

On the way, listen to interesting stories about Catalonia and its bounding to the holy mountain, scene of pilgrims since ancient times and part of the route to Santiago de Compostela. Your guide will share important information to understand the heritage you will discover during the tour.

Vanessa B, 26-01-2022

Nuria ha sido la mejor guía que hemos tenido! Además de tener dominio histórico sobre los lugares que visitamos, hemos podido aprender profundamente sobre la cultura catalana. El
Tour ha valido la pena, lo aprovechamos al máximo, conocimos un castillo medieval, su iglesia, la mina de sal y Montserrat en un día y hasta hemos tenido tiempo de comer a pie de un lago.

Viagem a Montserrant
