Went today to Montserrat. Please be aware that the they don’t give discount anymore for pass holders. They showed an internal mail there the discount was cancelled since 27/07/2022.

Could you please update the pages showing the discount? https://www.interrail.eu/en/plan-your-trip/you-decide-which-track/europes-hidden-gems/hidden-gems-south.

Hello! Thank you for your feedback. I have shared this now with our team and I will provide you with an update as soon as I have more information!

Kind regards,

Annie

I would like to also add that only certain routes are discounted by the Pass. Please send me a PM with more details so we can check it and confirm whether that route was discounted or not :)

This mountain line HAS only 1-going up that mountain.

It is managed by FGC=Ferrocarril generalitat de Catalunya-which also runs a few raillines-urban/surburban in Bcn-alll in the local chipcard zonal fare system and  hence not even able to accept passes/discounts and some other lines taken over from RENFE which wanted to abandon them-status/discounts for those unknown, but I bet none.

Hi Jtim, thanks for flagging. The information on that page has been adjusted just now.

@Nanja Interrail/Eurail pass holders also need to pay a regular ticket on the other FGC trains (so starting from Barcelona in this example), not just on the rack railway.

Correct, that is because FGC trains are not part of the Pass Network, so passengers need to pay a regular ticket on those lines

@Nanja the web page still needs to be corrected to take this into account. Currently, it only says Interrailers need a normal ticket on the rack railway but they need one from Barcelona.
