Funicular de Sant Joan, Mountain funicular in Montserrat, Spain.

The Sant Joan funicular railway carries passengers up a 65% gradient track to an elevation of 1000 meters above sea level at Montserrat mountain.

The Sant Joan funicular opened in 1918 to connect the Montserrat monastery with the higher mountain areas, establishing a vital transportation link.

The funicular station houses the Aula de la Natura museum, which presents exhibits about the local mountain ecosystems and wildlife of Montserrat.

The funicular operates daily from 10:00, with departures every 20 minutes, and ticket prices start at 10.70 euros for a single journey.

The funicular cars feature glass ceilings that allow passengers to observe the mountain landscape during their vertical ascent through the rocky terrain.
