Fantastic tourist spot. Enjoyed the full walk from the 2 stone pillars up to the 4 collums and then up 100 steps to the museum. Amazing views! Cafe halfway up so we stopped for a drink and a sit down. Turn right at the museum, left at the carpark and up the path, this will take you all the way through to the main road where the Olympic stadium is on the left. Go past the Olympic stadium down the main road and it takes you to the cable cars which go up to mountjuic Castle. Now that is a view! Wowser! Only complaint. All fountains off due to draught. Such a shame as was looking forward to the magic fountain.

The most beautiful views of the city. Panoramic. Picking out the landmarks from the balcony overlooking the Olympic pool. Gorgeous gardens. Ot very busy this time of year. The Barcelona FC is also lovely. Peaceful and once home to the 1992 Olympics

It was a pretty nice view. We took a cab up to the cable car entrance and then took the cable car to the castle. The views on the cable car were a bit better than the ones on the mountain but we didn’t go on the top of the castle so the views were probably better there. Beautiful nature though in the park

This very large park looms over the port and harbor and contains several world class museums. Also one comes here for spectacular views of the sea and the city below. There are a couple of Metro stations nearby, but the hill is steep and you may need a bus or cab ride to get to the upper reaches. There are escalators on one side.

We took the cable cars from the bottom to the top. Bought return tickets online for €30 for two people. Entrance at the bottom is right by the public transport. Small queue to go through. We were in a cable car with another couple on the way up, we got off at the top, walked down to the middle entrance and got a cable car in the way down just the two of us. Really quick, some swaying but only when we stopped briefly. Stunning views, love big park, would recommend. There is a small outdoor cafe halfway between the top and middle cable car entrance where you can buy grab a pint!

Easy to get to. We got one of the buses recommended and got off at the top. We walked around the castle enjoying the views over the port, and then into the park. We walked down to the Olympic Stadium, and down to the plaza at the bottom. We love butterflies and it was great to see several species including Clouded Yellows, Long Tailed Blues, Lang's Short-Tailed Blues.

Parc de Montjuic is the name for the big green space perched on the hill that borders Sants and looks over Barcelona and the sea. Montjuïc was originally developed for the 1929 International Exposition and then the 1992 Olympic Games and although most people come here for the Olympic stadium, I came to have a look at the swimming pool perched on the side of the hill. For anyone who watched the Barcelona Olympics the scenes of the High Board diving event with the competitors having that incredible view of the city of Barcelona behind them is something you do not forget. But the area is also well worth visiting for the lots of gardens on this big, green space which you can leisurely stroll through. The big attraction is Jardí Botànic with its collection of Mediterranean plants on steep slopes that provide a great viewpoint. But there are also the Jardins de Mossèn Costa i Llobera, featuring cactus, and the Jardins de Mossèn Cinto Verdaguer, The Jardins de Laribal, and the Jardins Joan Brossa, one of the newest gardens which opens out into a woodland park.

I'd say this is the place to come for views of Barcelona, much better for views than Park Guell. It's absolutely huge and there are a lot of roads going through it. We headed for the cable car which we took up to the castle. We enjoyed the cable car but it's a fairly short ride and cost 60 euros for 4 of us which we thought was quite expensive. Consequently we didn't go into the castle at the top as that would have been about another 45 euros. The views over the sea and the city are incredible though, well worth a visit.

We took the cable car from the port to Montjuic. It was a beautiful ride and a nice way to get to the Montjuic area. It drops you in the north east corner, where you have great views of the city and the port. To get to the castle, you have to walk uphill quite a way. There is also another cable car that will take you up to the castle. You can also walk over to the Olympic sites and the national Art Museum, all of which are well worth seeing, but it does involve a good bit of walking. Allow a few hours if you plan to try to see it all.
