The quickest way to travel from Barcelona to Montserrat is the train to the foot of the mountain, and a rack railway all the way to the top. With this ticket, you will have a hassle-free experience of Montserrat, with transfers between Barcelona and Montserrat already taken care of. The train journey offers breathtaking views of the natural scenery all around you and makes for excellent photo opportunities.

At Montserrat Museum, you can enjoy some of the finest paintings in the world, from renowned artists such as Dali, Picasso, and Le Corbusier. The Basilica of Montserrat is another renowned attraction and houses the patron saint of Catalonia, the Virgin of Montserrat. The 12th-century carving of the Black Madonna can also be admired from a distance. Take a break and enjoy a delicious lunch buffet at the museum. Once you're done, pay a visit to the audio-visual exhibit. It illustrates the rich history of the mountain, the daily life and activities of the monks and the history and spirituality of the monastery.
