This is one of the most popular places to visit is Barcelona. Some nights they put on a show with the fountain playing with music. Huge fountains, and you can walk up to the museum at the top we’re they have additional fountains. Great place to take some awesome photos while spending a few hours here. The metro is only about 1 block away so getting to and from is very easy.

We walked all the way up to the art museum and turned around to look back at the city and the fountains. We took the cable car to the top to see an even better view of the city and harbor. We went past the buildings used in the Olympic Games in 1992. We could see the big cruise ships in the harbor too. It was all really interesting and the long walk up the hill gave us a good workout!

We travelled up by bus from Pl Espanya. Its the 150 (saying something along the lines of Castell Montjuic on the front) which you get from outside the tourist booth. We used our T-Casual cards which also work on the metro etc. The card machine is not the one as you get on the bus, you need to pass the driver and you will see it on the right part way down the aisle.
Great, windy drive up to the top, with lots of great views. Your last stop is a handful of steps up to the castle. We then decided to walk down, a bit of a challenge at times due to lack of helpful signposts! There are brown signs for things like the Botanical gardens (which we visited), road signs, and a bit of guess work! Also some lamp posts did have maps which saved the day a couple of times! If you walk please go through Jardin Laribel which is absolutely stunning in the Spring. Flowers, wisteria, a waterfall, trees in full blossom - just gorgeous (and free!).
After a good wander with stops on the way we got back down to the magic fountain having thoroughly enjoyed getting away from the city. Not many places to eat or drink though, so bring supplies. In the Botanical gardens there were vending machines in the entrance, but no café! (They are missing a trick there)

The park has so much that you will truly need to spend an entire day. We took our time and did it in two days. There are two Cable cars, we took the Port Cable Car and it drops you off near Hotel Miramar. There is a cafe as you get off and it is fun to have a drink and spend half an hour enjoying the view.
The other Cable car you can get to using the funicular. It was closed during the time we were there. You could take this one going up to Montjuic and the Port Cable Car going down.
There is so much to see that you really should plan your time and not rush it. Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya is a must see.

The Montjuic hill and its park are so way more than the magic fountain many here are only writing about.
The park comprises a huge area in the southwestern part of town. You can access it by car with several free parking lots around (and some paying). If you don't have a car the best and most scenic way is by the cable car.
Once up, there's so much to explore: The Monjuic Castle - nice fortress with city views, Botanical gardens, old Monjuic cemetery, Joan Miro museum, Poble Espanol outdoor exhibition, National musuem of Catalonia (MNAC), the Olympic Stadium, cascade fountains including the magic fountain.
Some of these attractions are free, some are paying so decide yourself, but for sure you'll need at least half day for your visit.

This hill can be visited by metro or bus. But if you take the the metro, you have to again take a cable car or a bus from there to reach the castle.
View of the Mediterranean sea & the city of Barcelona from the castle is eye catching! Especially the walk round the castle was great. Visiting inside the fort is a personal choice, which I did not prioritise.
The Olympic sports arenas add to the memorable tour of the Montjuic.!

Fantastic tourist spot.
Enjoyed the full walk from the 2 stone pillars up to the 4 collums and then up 100 steps to the museum. Amazing views!
Cafe halfway up so we stopped for a drink and a sit down.
Turn right at the museum, left at the carpark and up the path, this will take you all the way through to the main road where the Olympic stadium is on the left. Go past the Olympic stadium down the main road and it takes you to the cable cars which go up to mountjuic Castle. Now that is a view! Wowser!
Only complaint. All fountains off due to draught. Such a shame as was looking forward to the magic fountain.

Hola. Me gustaría saber si me pueden aconsejar ya que dentro de unas semanas iré a BCN por primera vez y el sábado por la noche a un concierto al Sant Jordi Club. Vivo ahora en Valencia y sé que es bastante seguro por la noche. Pero sé que Barcelona es mucho más grande y me gustaría saber si debo tomar muchas precauciones? Es seguro o no mucho? Es mejor regresar al centro en taxi? O puedo caminar tranquilamente a tomar el bus de noche? Les agradezco por su tiempo y consejos. Buen día!!

Bonjour, pour aller au haut du parc, est ce facile de trouver le téléphérique de Montjuic après le funiculaire? Est il nécessaire d’aller jusqu’au château si on veut juste profiter des jardins avant le
Spectacle des fontaines magiques?

Le départ du téléphérique est juste au dessus de la station d’arrivée du funiculaire ; très facile à trouver
Le château est tout en haut
Vous pouvez remonter à travers les parcs jusqu’où vous voulez
C’est le côté vu sur le port le plus intéressant ; les fontaines sont sur l’autre coté

Ciao, mi spiegate un pochino meglio come visitare Montjuic? Conviene portarsi in zona con i mezzi pubblici e poi salire a piedi? Oppure utilizzare funicolare o teleferica?

Personalmente ho preso sia la funicolare che la teleferica soprattutto su quest'ultima puoi godere di una bellissima vista sulla città.
Η είσοδος είναι δωρεάν;

Salve! Ho letto che oltre la teleferica e la funivia, c’è una funicolare (treno) sapete darmi informazioni? Avrei bisogno di sapere a quale fermata della metro scendere per prendere la funicolare

Il percorso che ti consiglio é quello di prendere la L3 (linea verde) fino a Paral-lel che é il capolinea. Da lì ci sono le indicazioni per la funicolare che ti porterà direttamente alla teleferica di Montjuic!

As far as I know entry to the park is free. But entry to the castle and things like the cable car ride will cost you. No need to buy tickets online.
