The Montserrat Natural Park situates at a distance of 50 kilometers from Barcelona. We approach the park with the appealing and singular views offered by our fully-equipped private conveyance.
Our first stop in Montserrat’s Natural Park is the Benedictine Monastery, established in the 11th century. It constitutes the dwelling for Catalonia’s Patron Saint, The Black Madonna of Montserrat which stands as a potent symbol of unification and spirituality for the local inhabitants.
After touring the Monastery grounds, we ascend to the crest to relish the awe-inspiring vistas of the Natural Park and most of its surroundings.
During our hike, we tread the very trails utilized by the pilgrims centuries ago. We get enchanted by the intriguing flora and fauna of Montserrat and we also take singular routes where the rocky columns and gorges exhibit the mystery of the emerging water from the concealed and unexplored heart of the massif.
At the base in the Monastery again, we acquire some leisure time before our return journey to Barcelona.
