The best viewpoint in Barcelona
Tibidabo, with an altitude of more than 500 meters above sea level, is the highest peak in the Serra de Collserola Natural Park. This fact makes the mountain one of the most privileged viewpoints, from where the majesty of the city of Barcelona can be seen. The Tibidabo Panoramic Area allows you to contemplate the city and enjoy the best views with its emblematic attractions and restaurants.
Since 1899
Tibidabo is the second-oldest amusement park in Europe and one of the oldest in the world. It was established in 1899 with the Sociedad Anónima El Tibidabo, promoters of the urbanization of the mountain, the creation of a tramway, a funicular (the first in Spain) and an amusement park in 1901.
The response of the inhabitants of the city of Barcelona was enthusiastic; for the first time they could comfortably and quickly access the top of the city and enjoy exceptional and almost unknown views. Although the first visitors corresponded mostly to the elite class, little by little the Amusement Park became popular and the first attractions, events and shows, as well as cafés and restaurants emerged.
The funicular
La Cuca de Llum, the new Tibidabo funicular opened in 2021, allows you to climb to the top of the mountain in the fastest and most sustainable way, becoming a magical experience where you can enjoy the panoramic views of Barcelona and the Serra de Collserola. You can take it from Plaça Doctor Andreu, and it is included in all ticket types.
