Montserrat
- Coordinates 41°36′ N · 1°49′ E
- Highest point Sant Jeroni · 1,236 m
- Natural Park Since 1987
- Rock Conglomerate
A conglomerate massif shaped by water and wind, full of gullies, pinnacles and hermitages clinging to the rock, where hermits lived for centuries. On foot, and with people who know it, it makes sense in a different way.
Guided hike · 1 day
The hermits’ Montserrat
A day through the hermitages of Sant Joan and Sant Onofre, past Sant Miquel, down Jacob’s Ladder to Santa Anna and back to the monastery. It is a route with steady ascents and descents, with sections of steps and rock stairs.
Along the way we tell you who the hermits were, why they chose these spots and how this rock, which looks like pebbles glued together, was formed.

Frequently asked questions
What level do I need?
It depends on the hike. For the hermits’ route you should walk regularly. Before confirming your place we talk for 15 minutes and tell you honestly.
What if the weather is bad?
We check the forecast that same morning. If it isn’t safe, we switch to an alternative route or postpone the hike.
Can I come on my own?
Yes. Many people join on their own, and groups are small.
How do I book?
Message us on WhatsApp or through the form. Your place is confirmed once you pay by bank transfer or Bizum.
What if I need to cancel?
We explain the cancellation terms before you confirm your place.
