Montjuïc Cable Car Roundtrip Tickets: Barcelona aerial views

See Barcelona from the cable car, not the street

Montjuïc Cable Car Roundtrip Tickets give you access to ride up and down Montjuïc Hill by cable car, with views of Barcelona's rooftops, sea and skyline included both ways. You control the timing: ride up, spend as long as you want on the hill exploring its parks and landmarks, then ride back down whenever you're ready. Infants sit on an adult's lap. The cable car suits all fitness levels.

The experience

The cable car climbs from the base of Montjuïc Hill straight up, and the city spreads out below as you rise: rooftops, the Mediterranean, the skyline all visible at once. The roundtrip ticket means you ride both directions, so you're not locked into a schedule. Ride up, explore the hill's green spaces and historical sites at whatever pace suits you, then catch the cable car back down when you've had enough. Most visitors to Barcelona never leave street level. This one gets you above it.

The ride takes about an hour roundtrip, though you set how long you stay on top. Tickets sell quickly during peak times, so booking ahead locks in your spot. Infants travel free on an adult's lap, and the cable car is accessible to all fitness levels. There's no hiking or climbing involved, just the ride itself and whatever walking you choose to do once you're up there.

Top questions

Yes. Ticket types: Child (3 to 10 years); Infant (under 3): free.

How long does the Montjuïc Cable Car roundtrip actually take?

The cable car ride itself runs about an hour roundtrip: roughly 30 minutes up and 30 minutes down. You decide how long to spend on Montjuïc Hill between the two rides, so the total time is entirely up to you.

What can I see from the cable car?

The cable car climbs Montjuïc Hill and gives you views of Barcelona's rooftops, the Mediterranean Sea, and the city skyline. The perspective shifts as you rise, so the view changes throughout the ride both up and down.

Can I bring an infant on the cable car?

Yes, infants are required to sit on an adult's lap during the ride. No separate ticket is needed for them.

Do I need to book a specific time to ride, or can I just show up?

Tickets often sell out during busy periods, so booking in advance is recommended to guarantee your spot. Once you have your ticket, you choose when to ride up and when to ride back down.
