About

Enjoy a memorable day out in Montserrat and escape the hustle and bustle of Barcelona. Appreciate a complete experience where you will visit the Monastery of Montserrat and enjoy a 3-course menu with breathtaking views, all while living a unique experience. Take home exclusive memories from this amazing day in the countryside!

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

Visit and lunch in Montserrat

On the way to the Monastery, admire the Massif of Montserrat, a spectacular multi-peaked rocky range packed with unique needle-shaped formations. Upon arrival, visit the Monastery, which was founded in the 10th century and still functions to this day, with over 70 monks. It is also well-known for hosting the figure of La Moreneta (visit not guaranteed), who is the patron saint of Catalonia. Your guide will bring history alive by explaining the history and ventures of this Monastery dating back nearly a thousand years.

A bus will take you to a farmhouse where you will enjoy lunch made from farm-to-table ingredients, featuring a delicious 3-course menu: a first course salad, a second course combination of barbecue (with vegetarian and halal options), and dessert, all with stunning views. Please note that in August, the restaurant may vary, but you will still be able to appreciate the views of Montserrat.

Observing this massif from a distance makes it easier to understand the importance of this mountain in influencing the traditions and culture of the surrounding regions.

The plans and terraces of the farmhouse have been cultivated for hundreds of years. At present, there are 2,700 trees of the local varieties, Palomar and Vera. After this full day of adventures, you will return to the center of Barcelona by private transport.
