Montseny is a small town in the province of Barcelona, immersed in a unique natural setting.

With just a few hundred inhabitants, and located in the middle of a biosphere reserve, the town of Montseny offers the ideal place to get away from it all, surrounded by silence, or to really make the most of the surrounding areas to enjoy all sorts of activities. Book your holidays in Montseny to enjoy nature like nowhere you’ve seen before.

In spite of its small size, the town has various interesting monuments to see, such as the Romanesque church of Sant Julià, which has been transformed several times throughout its history and is famous for the box tree that grows in its courtyard, officially declared a monumental tree or the curious Museu de les Esquelles de Jaume, a museum of animal bells collected by the shepherd Jaume Traveria throughout his life. You’ll also want to visit the shrine of Sant Marçal de Montseny, a beautiful example of Romanesque architecture, whose origins date back to the 11th century.

The main reason to look for cheap trips to Montseny, though, is, without a doubt, the spectacular surrounding areas. Montseny Nature Park is one of the most important natural spaces in Catalonia thanks to its extraordinary biodiversity. It is home to routes of various difficulty levels that you can follow on foot, horseback or mountain bike. If sports aren't really your bag, there are also several routes that you can follow by car that will give you a great idea of the diversity of fauna and flora in the park, while visiting some other towns in the area.

If you’re interested in the history of the park, you won’t want to miss the permanent exhibition “Montseny Nature Park. A dialogue between man and the land”, which you can visit without having to leave Montseny, to discover the changes that have taken place in this magnificent natural space since it was first populated.
