Montserrat - A Mountain, a Monastery, and a Sanctuary
From a geological perspective, Montserrat is exceptionally stunning. Besides its natural grandeur, it’s also recognized as a sacred site for Christians and houses both a Benedictine Monastery that is nearly a millennium old, and the Sanctuary of Our Lady of Montserrat. This day-long trip allows you to wander through the Abbey of Montserrat. You’ll get an opportunity to pay homage to ‘La Moreneta’, the revered black Madonna of Montserrat, and also spare some time for a simple hike to soak in the breathtaking scenery from St Michael’s cross or take the funicular up to the mountain peak. If art is more to your liking, the Art Museum presents another option. A special treat will be the Boy’s Choir recital just before your lunch break.
A one hour train journey takes you to Montserrat, where you’ll ascend the mountain on a Cable Car and descend via Rack railway train. Alternatively, if you opt for the van/bus, you will still have the chance to ride the Cable Car, unless you indicate otherwise.
