Abbey of Santa Maria de Montserrat

Highlight • Religious Site

The Benedictine abbey of Santa Maria de Montserrat [ˈsantə məˈɾi.a ðə munsəˈrat] is located at an altitude of 721 meters in the mountain range of the same name, about 40 km northwest of Barcelona in the extreme south of the Bages comarca. Today, about 80 monks live there according to the Regula Benedicti. In the monastery, the 12th-century Marian depiction "Our Lady of Montserrat", popularly known as La Moreneta ("The Brown One"), is venerated by numerous pilgrims. As an important center of Catalan culture, Montserrat also has high symbolic significance beyond the Catholic Church.

Wonderful tour starting from Montserrat Monastery. The parking lot was already crowded in the off-season at noon. Either come early in the morning or take the cog railway from the valley. 1st part of the route quite steep ascent, felt to 2/3 by stairs.

Beware everyone. Photographing went through with me as always 🤪🤪. But it was a really cool hike. I would do exactly that again anytime 😎

Hiked in July on a day that was initially cool and then over 30 degrees.

The east side, the ascent, is shadier, but the way back is higher with a better view of the rock formations.

The last section, the Cami Vell, is less used and less well maintained, so more difficult.
