Wonderful places

The Montserrat Mountain is a unique setting for its enclave, its silhouette, and its monastery. It can be reached by road or by taking the funicular. From above the monastery, there are different paths you can take that surround the mountain so you can discover wonderful places. One specifically is "Via Crucis", which will take you to a small chapel where the Virgin was supposedly discovered.
