Hikes in Barcelona

Montserrat  

The Montserrat mountains are close to Barcelona and a great place to hike. Here you can walk different routes. Some are hard and need some experience, but there are also hikes for people who don't hike very often as there is also a shuttle to take you to the top so you still get to see the stunning scenery without doing the complete hike.  

Tibidabo  

There is a lot to do at the Tibidabo mountain. It is one of the most popular hiking area in Barcelona, but you can do so much more. There is a gorgeous vintage theme park on the top of the mountain. Here you can also find a church, the view from the church is amazing. With an elevator you can go to the very top, and view down over all the hikers in Barcelona.  

Bunkers del Carmel
