Really enjoyed this... - Really enjoyed this scenic hike. A few steep inclines but very doable for a relatively unfit person like me. Our tour guide Bernard was excellent. Very knowledgeable about the wildlife and nature of the mountain and of the history of the area, and very passionate about mountains and the environment. We enjoyed the hike thoroughly.

Quite a hike but worth it - It was an amazing hike. Be prepared for a pretty steep incline going up and some precarious steps coming back down, but it is totally worth it if you are in decent shape and sure-footed. The views are great & it was a great day of exercise and fresh air. The monastery is also beautiful and worth a visit.

Thanks, Bernat, for a great hike - We had a fantastic hike with Bernat who was very pleasant, knowledgeable and helpful. We spent, for us, the right amount of time viewing the monastery and the majority of time hiking and learning about the mountains and the flora. The snack provided was much appreciated. The hike is a tad difficult but doable and so worth it.

Get off the beaten path! - The Monastery is beautiful, but it was really the beauty of the mountain that provided the great experience. Hiking off the beaten path, enjoying traditional Catalon snacks, hearing the history of the people, the land and their culture made the time well spent. If you enjoy trail hiking (we did 4 miles, much in the sun) you’ll love this adventure! The van ride transportation was smooth too, and it was nice to get out of Barcelona for a bit. Strongly recommend !

Unique Montserrat experience with passionate local guide! - Such a great day! What made it so unique was the guide’s knowledge of the hiking routes around the monastery, the geologic features, and flora and fauna in the area. We went inside the Basilica and saw the religious site, and the guide also shared history of this spot throughout time. But learning about the plants and taking lesser-traveled trails was special and not something I would have found on my own. Highly recommend this tour and any tour by this local company!
