You can spend hours here admiring the scenery and hiking the paths. The cuisine of Bages, Barcelona, the Pyrenees, the beach... everything is within a few kilometres, so its a great place to spend a dream vacation. You won't have time to be bored. Also, visit the village of Montserrat Monistrol.
The hills of Montserrat are protected acres pine integers about an hour away from Barcelona. A paradise for hiking and climbing, near the sea and the beach. To go to Montserrat, you just need to take a regional train from Barcelona, with FCG, which brings you to the foot of the hills. After we came up with a zipper, which comes in front of the monastery of Montserrat, excavated in the rocks of the mountain. It is a place of pilgrimage, where the Virgin appeared. From there, the tourist office gives you a map with routes, most are twists and turns that can take up to 4 hours, and other times you can go to another station to return home, on the other side of the mountain.
You will be treated to this view when you hike up to the top of Monserrat, and trust me it's worth the hike! Expect uneven paths as you hike closer to the top. There is also a market somewhere in Montserrat where you can buy local dairy products and snacks.
This place has a unique topography and relief. There are rock pinnacles that attract rock climbers and hikers. The monastery is full of history and treasures. The mountain is much more than a landscape, it's a symbol of identity and religion.
