Vova NovaqueDecember 3, 2016The place to visit for a day trip from Barcelona. In November was quite comfortable. In high season super overcrowded. Spend more time walking in the mountains that queuing in the Church.
JaneNovember 1, 2012Worth a trip from Barcelona. You really need a full day to enjoy and explore the surroundings. Take the Sant Joan funicular and wear sturdy shoes for walking the stony trails.
Gabriel CarmoSeptember 4, 2014Wonderful landscape!!! The kids choir is amazing. Worth visiting. Go early in the morning. Climb until the most important belvederes and go down. I suggest entering the temple until 12am.
Svetlana FawksieJuly 22, 2013Take the first train (~8:00-8:30, FGS from Espanya) to avoid huge crowds and queue to Black Madonna. Buy train+cremallera, train+aeri to save money. Taking a walk for beautiful landscapes is a MUST.
- Oh-Barcelona.comDecember 18, 2012Just an hour's train ride away from the city centre lies Montserrat mountain, where you can see Benedictine Abbey as well as some breathtaking views! Read more
Luis CastroDecember 9, 2014Quiet place, the best hours to go are in the morning. Not many people go before lunch. So you will have time to take photos and walk.
- William NgApril 18, 2016Breathtaking views and unique looking mountains. Go look at the Black Madonna. The buffet lunch at the self-service restaurant is surprisingly good
Jude LaurenAugust 7, 2013Definitely take the Cremallera de Monserrat (funicular) to go up to the monastery. It's an amazing experience
dmPalets .January 25, 2013Mandatory to visit in any time, you can take a return ticket on Espanya station for ~18Eur only
Elena SemenchukSeptember 19, 2014The mountains and the monastery unite in an unforgettable and impressing sight. Better go there for a weekend to enjoy it to the fullest
Mikhail EvteevSeptember 3, 2013Hazelnut liqueur and walnut liqueur - a nice souvenir from Montserrat! Degustation in the shop costs 1.5 euros
serenOctober 29, 2014If you want to climb to sant jeroni, don't forget to buy water. It's 1 hour 20 mins to go up to sant jeroni from sant joan funicular and 50 mins to go down.
Apartment BarcelonaOctober 16, 2012A perfect day trip away from the bustling Las Ramblas...but be sure to head there early as there is plenty to see!
Vivian WuJune 21, 2011Skip the crowds for the boys choir performance and head to the Capella de Santa cavo for a beautiful mini hike. Then check out the incredible basilica after the crowds are gone.
KornelySeptember 24, 2012Be ready to wait in queue to touch Madonna at least one hour. But it worth it!
Rafael MarinAugust 17, 2011This is a fantastic and very special place. Beautiful city embedded in the mountains. I want to go again!
TimberlandAugust 9, 2011Put on your Timberland boots and take a hike to the top of this mountian, it might be tough but, the view is worth the effort!
Patrick HilhorstMay 24, 2011Magical Place! Been there 3 times, can't get enough of the place... History, Hiking, Sightseeying
Amir Abdel-GhanyNovember 14, 2014Listen to the children singing and hike the mountain and go down with the train
Igor MiniailoOctober 11, 2014Very picturesque place the only disadvantage - too many russians over there.
- Florian IsachsenAugust 28, 2011Do not queue up for this little Madonna. You can see it from the Inside of the basilica.
- Buy "mato" cheese and walking up to Sant Jeroni are a must
Karen OrtegaDecember 27, 2014Es un paisaje único. Es costoso arriba, es mejor llevar comida y hacer una especie de picnic porque la cafetería esta muy llena siempre. Es mejor comprar el tren + teleferico desde Barcelona 20 euros.
Cherry 🍒February 12, 2018스페인 카탈루냐 지역에서 신령스런 산으로 불리는 몬세라트. 바위로 이뤄진 웅장한 풍경이 아름답습니다. 날씨는 예측불허여서 비가 온다고 하지만 가보면 햇살이 보이고, 그러다 금방 안개가 자욱해져서 산이 보이지 않기도 했습니다. Escolania de Montserrat(몬세라트 수도원 소년합창단)의 아름다운 성가를 오후 1시마다 들을 수 있어요. 매우추천!
- Marcelo Torio ChappelDecember 2, 2014Es tal cual se describe en el libro La Catedral del Mar de Ildefonso Falcones con su estructura majestuosa y su virgen pequeñita. Aunque no hayan leido el libro debéis visitarla porque es magnífica!!!
Marcela MeloSeptember 30, 2017Um lugar muito bonito para conhecer! Destaque para as montanhas! Lindas!
- Marcelo Torio ChappelDecember 2, 2014Muy bueno, disponer del día, subir, pasear, entrar, ver a la moreneta, comprar mató y disfrutar de una llonganisa amb mongetes en el restaurante. Buenísimo programa para un día completo
Gemma KangNovember 26, 2014바르셀로나를 여행하신다면 이 멋진 곳을 반드시 방문하셔야해요. 미사시작 30분 전쯤 성당 오른편 검은 성모상으로 가는 곳에 줄을 서시면 성당 안쪽으로 들어가 기다리게되며, 소년 성가대 성가를 기다리며 들으실수 있어요~ 미사가 끝나면 바로 맨앞에서 검은성모상으로 가게 되므로 오래 기다리지 않으셔도 됩니다
Павел ХлопинSeptember 17, 2014Unrealistically beautiful place! Обязательно приезжайте да если будете в Барсе это того ой как стоит!
Amira BeroevaMay 24, 2018Хор мальчиков поёт как ангелы. Место необходимо посетить. Особенно попасть к Чёрной Мадонне.
Lucie MatagneJanuary 17, 2017Me encanto Montserrat! Sentirse en contacto con la naturaleza, caminar, ver los paisajes, hacer un picnic, ... no tiene precio.
Alejandro LosadaOctober 31, 2017Las vistas, la catedral, el museo. No se lo pueden perder. Toma mucho tiempo pero vale la pena ver a la virgen.
Michael G.September 9, 2014Очень рекомендую ехать самостоятельно. Садимся в 8:15 или 8:30 в электричку от Espanya на линию R5. Далее доезжаете либо до Aeri или Monistrol. Оттуда или канатка или кремальера доставит вас до места
Mari LaJuly 4, 2014Это невероятное место! Счастлива бывать здесь.В утренние часы очередь к Святой Марие не особо большая.Но чем ближе к ней подходишь,тем сильнее эмоции и даже появляется какая-то мелкая дрожь!Святыня!
Anna VolikMay 31, 2013Совет тем, кто верит в чудеса: если непременно нужно дотронуться до Virgin Negra - подождите 4-х дня. Тысячи туристов с лайнеров схлынут в море и очередь - в 15 минут. Остальное время посвятите парку.
EDIXON UZCATEGUIJune 15, 2012A la 13:00 horasCanta el Coro de Niños del Monestir Montserrat de Lunes a Viernes y los Domingos a las 12:00 horas. Es una maravila te transporta completamente
