- Intermediate 3-5 hours (To Sant Jeroni 1236 m altitude, starting from Monastery). Elevation gain: 537m. Total distance: 8km.

- Advanced 5-6.5 hours (From base to top Sant Jeroni 1236m altitude and back down). Elevation gain: 956m. Total Distance: 19km. Option to reduce this to 16km with funicular (excluded in price).

PLEASE NOTE, DURING THE VERY HOT MONTHS OF JULY & AUGUST, WE ONLY RUN THE BEGINNERS AND INTERMEDIATE HIKE.

Throughout the hike we'll discover the fauna and flora of Montserrat, including squirrels, bats, wild boar and recently they've introduced mountain goats.

If you'd prefer something more gentle we'll start higher up the mountain at the Monastery (beginners & intermediate) and you'll be able to enjoy drive up, admiring the dense undergrowth with the wide variety of plants of up to 1250 different species.
