The Montjuïc Funicular Railway is probably the quickest and most comfortable way to travel the short distance from Parallel up to Montjuïc. The best part of all is that is part of the public transport system so you can use your travel card to make the journey.
Catch the train from Parallel Metro Station (L4) for the short one-stop ride up the side of the hill. See Barcelona Parks and Gardens
