Address Parc de Montjuïc, Barcelona Map, Notes Take the metro to Para-lel stop and then follow the signs to the funicular (inside the station). Exiting the funicular, follow the signs to the gondola station next door and take it to the top.
Monjuic mountain is best described as a weekend playspace for Barcelona families. There are gondolas, the Magic Fountains, Museums, a swimming pool, a castle (Castle of Montjuic) and fantastic playgrounds. There's also a model Spanish Village (best skipped) called Poble Espanyol.
If you have a toddler, riding the funicular up the hill will be half the fun (our son still talks about the funicular one month after returning home)
