A quaint monastery lying in the arms of the mighty Montserrat mountains is the sight you'll behold on this guided tour to the Montserrat Abbey. Your convenient round-trip begins with a bus journey from the upper part of Passeig de Gràcia to the natural park of Montserrat.
Monastery in a Massif
The dramatic silhouette of the serrated mountain peak rises from the countryside of Barcelona, with unique rock formations giving the mountains their distinctive character. Located between these peaks is the Montserrat Monastery, a historical site founded in the 10th century and home to 70 monks. Learn about the importance of the site as a center of spiritual and cultural facets in modern-day Catalonia from your bilingual guide. The monastery is well-known for hosting the shrine of La Moreneta or the Black Madonna.
As Fresh as it Gets!
With a cultivation history of over 100 years and lush trees of Palomar and Vera carpeting the grounds, the farmhouse invites you to relish a 3-course farm-to-table lunch. Start with a fresh salad course and work up an appetite, as the aroma of sizzling barbecue entices you to dive into the next part of your meal. A lip-smacking dessert will mark the end of the meal and your journey on a sweet note!
