Take a scenic 5-10 minute cable car ride above Barcelona to reach the historic Montjuïc Castle. Ride back with an optional stop at Mirador de l'Alcalde.

Highlights

  • Enjoy a quick, super-scenic ride from Parc de Montjuïc to Castell de Montjuïc and back on this roughly 5-to-10-minute round-trip cable car ride.

The ride is scenic. On the way, you can glimpse the iconic Basilica of Sagrada Familia, the busy Barcelona Port, and the storybook Tibidabo Mountain.

  • Opt to hop down at Mirador de l'Alcalde and explore Joan Brossa Gardens. See one of Europe's largest collections of cacti at Mossèn Costa I Llobera Gardens.

  • There's plenty to do at Parc de Montjuïc, including visiting the National Art Museum of Catalonia and the site of the 1992 Barcelona Olympics.

  • Fun fact: The castle was accessible only by a steep climb or the Montjuïc al Castell funicular railway (1928-1963) before the cable car system existed.

We enjoyed the cable car ride, the scenic view and the destination to the castle. However, the experience is expensive for what it is, in terms of duration .

Enjoyed the aquarium. Had no idea where to catch the cable car. Eventually we figured it out. Had hoped pre paid tickets would allow us to pass the line, but it didn't work that way. Overall it was a pleasant experience with a couple of glitches

The Overall experience was amazing & we had a fabulous time around the area. The only, tiny grope we had was poor signage around the Park area..more bolder and clearer, we had trouble making up our mind which directions to & lucky for us we had Google Maps to help us out. But other than that the Panic Alarm triggered on Our Mobile Devices we had a truly fabulous time "Thanks so Much"....

Montjuïc Cable Car

The cable car ride takes 5-10 minutes one way, traveling 750 meters between Parc de Montjuïc and Montjuïc Castle. Each cabin holds up to 8 people and offers panoramic views through large glass panels. During the journey, you'll see Barcelona Port, Sagrada Família, Tibidabo Mountain, Miramar Gardens, and the city skyline. The cable car makes three stops: Parc de Montjuïc (the starting point), Mirador stop, and Castell stop.

The castle and surroundings

Montjuïc Castle, built in 1640, sits 173 meters above sea level and served as a military fortress before becoming a municipal museum in 2007. The castle area features several gardens including Mossèn Costa i Llobera Gardens (known for its cacti collection), Miramar Gardens (with terraced viewpoints), and Joan Brossa Gardens. Near the Parc de Montjuïc station, visitors can access major attractions like the National Art Museum of Catalonia, Fundació Miró, and the 1992 Olympic Ring site.
