Turó de Montgat

Turó de Montgat, Hill summit in Montgat, Spain.

Turó de Montgat is a coastal hill located between the Barcelonés and Maresme regions along the Barcelona provincial coast. It rises approximately 40 meters above sea level and features marked pathways that form a walking circuit of about 2.84 kilometers.

The Barcelona–Mataró railway line, opened in 1848, drove the first railway tunnel in Spain through this hill, linking the Les Mallorquines and Sant Joan quarters. It cost 62,500 duros, and stone from the hilltop was extracted to bed the track. In 1887 an optical telegraph tower on the summit was demolished for sand from the quarry of the Tarragona to Barcelona and France Railway Company.

On the summit stands a monolith commemorating the founding of the Centre Excursionista de Catalunya, which took place here in 1876. The hill is one of the 100 cims listed by the FEEC, and stone steps lead up to the top.

A stone staircase climbs to the summit, where a monolith marks the 1876 founding of the Centre Excursionista de Catalunya. The hill is cut by the N-II road and the 1848 railway tunnel, so paths cross both. The summit is listed among the FEEC's 100 Cims.
