Take a scenic 5-10 minute cable car ride above Barcelona to reach the historic Montjuïc Castle. Ride back with an optional stop at Mirador de l'Alcalde.
- Enjoy a quick, super-scenic ride from Parc de Montjuïc to Castell de Montjuïc and back on this roughly 5-to-10-minute round-trip cable car ride.
The ride is scenic. On the way, you can glimpse the iconic Basilica of Sagrada Familia, the busy Barcelona Port, and the storybook Tibidabo Mountain.
-
Opt to hop down at Mirador de l'Alcalde and explore Joan Brossa Gardens. See one of Europe's largest collections of cacti at Mossèn Costa I Llobera Gardens.
-
There's plenty to do at Parc de Montjuïc, including visiting the National Art Museum of Catalonia and the site of the 1992 Barcelona Olympics.
-
Fun fact: The castle was accessible only by a steep climb or the Montjuïc al Castell funicular railway (1928-1963) before the cable car system existed.

Convenient because on the online tickets you can find out how to get there, as there are 2 different telepgerics. Too bad there isn't a dedicated queue for tickets already purchased. On the other hand, the site is very functional.View original review in FrenchYamil

Muy bueno el recorrido y el servicio prestado, con relación al Teleferico se produce una confesión porque hay dos telefericos, uno el que sube desde el puerto hasta monjuic y propiamente el de monjuic que esta en la montaña. El Acuario estuvo bien pero esperaba mas, con eventos con delfines o ballenas como en Miami

The Overall experience was amazing & we had a fabulous time around the area. The only, tiny grope we had was poor signage around the Park area..more bolder and clearer, we had trouble making up our mind which directions to & lucky for us we had Google Maps to help us out. But other than that the Panic Alarm triggered on Our Mobile Devices we had a truly fabulous time "Thanks so Much"....

Spectacular. Waiting times can be long for obvious reasons. I wouldn't miss it either way up or down.

The cable car was really nice experience. We took a walk around the castle and it was nice sunset.
