# Montserrat Hiking Experience & Monastery – Small Group (Max 8)

**Guidekin's take:** Combine Montserrat Monastery Basilica with a guided hike in Montserrat Natural Park in a small shared group of up to eight. Van transport, basilica entry and hiking poles are included; moderate fitness is required and drinks and snacks are excluded, with 4.97 from 156 reviews at €69 per person for 6h.

In our comparison: #18 of 100 in Day Trips, by rating weighted by review volume (table below).

## Overview

Montserrat Natural Park is located 50 kms away from Barcelona. We get there enjoying the amazing and UNIque views from our fully equipped private transportation.

The first place we will visit in Montserrat’s Natural Park is its Benedictine Monastery, first built on the 11th century and home to Catalonia’s Patroness Saint, The Black Madonna of Montserrat which is a strong symbol of spirituality and unity for the local people. 

Once we have visited the Monastery area, we hike up to the top, from where we will enjoy the breath-taking views of the Natural Park and most of the territory.

During the hike we walk on the same paths used by pilgrims hundreds of years ago, we will get inspired by Montserrat’s fascinating flora and fauna and we will also hike on UNIque ways where rocky pillars and ravines show us how inner mysterious water emerge from the hidden and undiscovered very center of the massif.

Back down in the Monastery, we have some free time before we head back to Barcelona.
