Sant Jeroni, Mountain summit in Montserrat, Spain.

Sant Jeroni reaches 1,236 meters in elevation and stands as the highest point of the Montserrat mountain range, featuring distinctive rock formations and steep cliffs.

The paths around Sant Jeroni served as strategic positions for Napoleon's troops in the early 1800s, establishing artillery locations to control Barcelona's surrounding areas.

The mountain features a small chapel dedicated to Saint Jerome, drawing visitors who combine physical activity with moments of contemplation throughout their ascent.

The climb starts at Plaça de Santa Maria near Montserrat Monastery, following marked trails through forest paths and concrete steps for approximately 12 kilometers.

From the summit, visitors can observe both the Pyrenees mountains to the north and the Mediterranean Sea to the south, including Barcelona's skyline on clear days.
