Aeri de Montserrat, Aerial tramway in Montserrat, Spain

The cable car system spans 1357 meters across the mountainside, connecting the base station to the Montserrat monastery at an elevation of 682 meters.

The Aeri de Montserrat began operations in 1930, establishing itself as the primary transportation method for reaching the mountaintop monastery from the valley below.

The cable car serves as a gateway for pilgrims and visitors seeking to reach the Benedictine monastery, where the revered Black Madonna statue resides.

Passengers can purchase combined tickets that include both the train journey from Barcelona and the cable car ride, with departures every 15 minutes during peak hours.

The journey takes exactly five minutes, carrying up to 35 passengers while ascending at a 45-degree gradient with views over the River Llobregat valley.
