Fodor's Review:

On clear days, the views from this hill are legendary, particularly from the 850-foot communications tower, Torre de Collserola. There's not much to see here except the vista, particularly from the tower. Breezy, smog-free days are few and far between in 21st-century Barcelona, but if (and only if) you hit one, this excursion is worth considering. The restaurant La Venta, at the base of the funicular, is excellent, a fine place to sit in the sun in cool weather (don't fret over sunburn; the establishment provides straw sun hats). The bar Mirablau is a popular hangout for evening drinks.
