Sant Joan Funicular and the hike down

Awesome report, FlyinHawaiian! We were actually just there in March and it was a great daytrip!

We also took the Sant Joan Funicular up from the town to the top, and the views were definitely worthwhile. 11€ one-way for adults. Last return is 17:00, or it's about a 45 min walk down on a wide paved path (an 'easy' hike but definitely a downhill quad workout). Don't be fooled by this sign like we were and go off down the dirt path...you'll end up clinging to the side of the mountain by a cable...

This signpost is meant to be read as you come UP the path from the left, not DOWN the path from the right!!


Not the path down!


The path down is wide and paved!
