š„¾ The Plan Weāll explore one of the wildest and most spectacular areas of Montserrat, following mountain trails through its unique rock formations, hidden hermitages and impressive viewpoints. Our first main objective will be the ascent to Roca de Sant Salvador (1,156 m), better known as āLāElefantā because of its distinctive shape. The final section is the most adventurous part of the route and includes some scrambling, where weāll need to use our hands to progress over the rock (although this is not a climbing activity). From there, if the groupās pace, weather and trail conditions allow, weāll continue towards Sant Jeroni (1,236 m), the highest point of Montserrat and our second main objective of the day. If the whole group is still feeling strong after Sant Jeroni and we have enough time, the guide may extend the route to another nearby summit, such as Miranda de Santa Magdalena or Albarda Castellana.
The exact itinerary will therefore depend on the group and weather conditions on the day.
š¦ Difficulty Level: High This is a physically demanding hike, mainly because of the significant elevation gain and the steep terrain. Depending on the final route: Distance: 12- 17 km šššāŖāŖ Elevation gain: +800/1,400 m ššššš Technical difficulty: šššāŖāŖ Some sections require using both hands and feet to progress over rocky terrain. This activity is recommended for people who are used to hiking in the mountains and comfortable with steep and uneven terrain. It is not recommended for people with a fear of heights.
