Even so, you can choose to explore the Monastery further, ride the funicular which takes you to 3000ft above sea level, offering breathtaking 360º views, take the funicular which leads you to the Holy Cave. Or even discover the art hidden in the Museum of Montserrat, which hosts paintings by Caravaggio, Dalí or Picasso. Don’ t worry because our guide will give his/her personal recommendations upon your request.

After visiting Montserrat, we will drive until the winery of Oller del Mas, during the route don’ t missed the wonderful views of the region and of the Magic Mountain of Montserrat.
