Telefèric de Montjuïc

The cable car on the eastern slope of the mountain was opened on June 22, 1970, as a continuation of the funicular of the Avenida Parallel-Montjuïc. The length of the line is 725m, the height difference is 85 meters.

Initially, open four-person cabins moved along the cables. In 2004, the lift was closed for a complete reconstruction, in fact, a new line was built.

Currently, 55 closed cabins with a capacity of 8 people are moving over the slopes of the mountain at a speed of 2.9 meters per second, and the line can carry 2,900 passengers per hour. The lifts are driven by electric motors with a total capacity of 400 kilowatts.

The lower station of the cable car, "Parc Montjuïc", is located next to the upper station of the funicular. The Fundaciò Mirò Museum of Modern Art and the Jardines de Mossèn Cinto Verdaguer are located nearby.

The cab floats over Piazza Dante with the La Belleza fountain.

Next station, Mirador de l'alcalde. Here, the tench makes a 90-degree turn, and the booths slow down for boarding and disembarking passengers. You can go to the Alcalde's observation deck and take a walk in the Mirador, Joan Brossa, Mossin Costa and Liebera parks.

Then, on the same ticket, you can go further, admiring the parks and the panorama of Barcelona from above.

A ten-minute cable car ride is not cheap at all - you have to pay 8.20 euros for a one-way ticket, 12.50 euros for a round trip ticket. For children under 12 years old, it is two euros cheaper.

The lift is open daily from 10 o'clock, the end time depends on the season: from June to September 21 hours, in October and from March to May at 19:00, in winter the cable car stops working at 6 pm.
