The Montjuic cable car


In Barcelona You can do many activities of all kinds, be they sports, visiting museums, strolling, going to the beach ... but if you want to enjoy the spectacular aerial views of the city, I recommend you go to Montjuic cable car, a great and economical option to see everything from a bird's eye view. It was closed for a time but since 2007 it has been working normally. The cable car has three stations:

Montjuic Park Station: it takes about five minutes to do the entire route, which is about 750 meters. It is the most comfortable and fastest way to climb the Montjuic mountain. It has 55 cabins with large windows so you can enjoy all the views that you have around you and each one can fit 19 people. It is a fantastic journey if you do not have vertigo.

Mirador Station: it is the best to take photos of the city from a privileged place. From the sea to the mountains in a very short time. Here the booths pass every 10 minutes, although if there are many people waiting there are more often, especially if it is vacation time, weekends or holidays.

Montjuic Castle Station: it is the last and there you will enjoy the views of Barcelona from the highest point.

The trip can be a bit expensive considering the little time it is, about 10 minutes if you do the full journey in a row. The Montjuic cable car price It is € 9.30 round trip for adults and € 6.50 if you want only one way. For children it is € 6.70 round trip and € 5 one-way. The ideal is to go up by cable car and walk down, it does not take long and you will also enjoy the road a lot. It is open every day from 10 am to 7 pm in April, May and October. From June to September it closes at 9pm and from November to March at 6pm.
