Which ticket should you buy?
- Park Güell Visit (€18): a self-guided visit. The official buy page says it gives access to the area with Gaudí’s best-known works, plus the green areas and panoramic viewpoints. The official FAQ puts the park at 12 hectares and limits access to 1,400 visitors per hour.
- Park Güell Guided Tour (€17 per person plus the park ticket): a guided tour in Catalan, Spanish, English or French in groups of up to 25. The guided-tours page gives about 50 minutes for this tour, while its introduction says the itinerary lasts “about an hour”. The meeting point is Carretera del Carmel 23. Children up to 6 pay nothing for the tour but still need their free park ticket. Passi Verd and resident-card holders pay only the tour fee.
- Park Güell visit with the Porter’s Lodge: a combined ticket that adds the Porter’s Lodge (Casa del Guarda), the gatekeeper’s house Gaudí designed at the Carrer d’Olot entrance. Inside is the exhibition Güell, Gaudí and Barcelona: An Expression of an Urban Ideal. The information pages do not print the price of this combined ticket, so check it at checkout.
- Park Güell visit with the Gaudí House Museum: not available. On 12 November 2026 the official buy page said “The Gaudí House Museum is temporarily closed for maintenance work” and the button was greyed out. The standard ticket never includes the Gaudí House Museum.
- Groups of 8 or more must register and book through the official Organised and Professional Groups section. Each online purchase is limited to 7 tickets.
Is Park Güell free? Free entry rules
- Children up to 6, people with disabilities and Targeta Rosa holders: free, but they still need a €0 ticket booked for a time slot.
- Barcelona residents (Passi Verd): anyone registered as a resident of the city (on the municipal register, the padró) can enter free by making a Passi Verd booking on the official website with their official ID number. The booking is named and is valid only for the same day. Advance bookings are not allowed, so if you want to visit on Saturday, you book on Saturday. Barcelona City Council introduced this system on 27 March 2026, replacing free entry through the Gaudir Més register (City Council press release, 26 March 2026).
- Residents of the neighbourhoods next to the park (La Salut, Vallcarca-Penitents, El Coll, Can Baró, Baix Guinardó and El Carmel) get a free, personal resident’s pass with access during all opening hours, 7:00 am to 10:00 pm, without booking. The pass does not include the Gaudí House Museum.
- Tourists: there is no free day or free hour for visitors. The early and late hours are reserved for residents and Passi Verd bookings, and tourist visits are not allowed then.

- Your time slot: you can enter up to 30 minutes after the start time printed on your ticket (a 9:30 ticket lets you in until 10:00). After that you lose your entry.
- Stay as long as you like: once inside there is no time limit, but you cannot re-enter after you leave.
How to buy Park Güell tickets (and avoid overpaying)
- Book online in advance. The official FAQ recommends buying in advance “exclusively through this official website”, says availability is very limited and lets you choose a date and slot up to three months ahead. Without a ticket, the park cannot guarantee entry at the time you want.
- Ticket machines and desks: the official access regulations still list ticket machines at the entrances and at the Lesseps and Vallcarca metro stations, plus the park’s customer service desks, as official channels. The buy page legend, however, says “Tickets online only”. Plan to buy online and treat anything else as a backup.
- Named tickets: the name on the ticket must match your ID document, which staff may check at the entrance. Names cannot be changed after booking.
- Changes and refunds: you can change the date and time up to one day before your visit, if there is space. Individual tickets cannot be cancelled or refunded, except in exceptional cases reviewed one by one.
- Resellers: the park says it has no agreement with any company to sell its tickets, and any amount above the official price is a fee it has not approved. Resold tickets can be cancelled without a refund.
- You do not need to print your ticket. Show the QR code on your phone at the entrance.
Works and closed paths (November 2026)
The official “Disruptions to visits” page (last updated 9 November 2026) says drainage, sewerage, irrigation, lighting and Wi-Fi works are under way. The route between Coll del Portell and the Forat del Vent Stairway and the route from Casa Trias to the Upper Viaduct (Viaducte de Dalt) are closed. The works are expected to last 18 months. Separate maintenance work on the ramp-staircase between the Marianao entrance and the Lower Viaduct “will not affect the visit”, according to the same page. The Gaudí House Museum is temporarily closed (see above).
How to get to Park Güell
- Bus Güell shuttle (included in your ticket): a direct shuttle from Alfons X metro station (line L4) takes about 15 minutes, and the return trip is included. Allow for the ride when you choose your time slot.
- Metro L3 (Lesseps or Vallcarca): about a 20-minute walk. From Lesseps, the park recommends the entrance on Avinguda del Santuari de Sant Josep de la Muntanya, which has an escalator. The official FAQ advises against the Vallcarca route for now because the Baixada de la Glòria escalators are out of service (the “How to get there” page still suggests them).
- Buses H6 and D40: from the Travessera de Dalt stop it is about a 10-minute walk to the Santuari or Carrer de Larrard entrances.
- Recommended entrances: Carretera del Carmel 23 (also the coach park, the taxi stand and the easiest arrival for people with reduced mobility), Carrer de Larrard, and Avinguda del Santuari de Sant Josep de la Muntanya.
- By car: not recommended. Most nearby street parking is for residents only; the park points drivers to the BSM Travessera de Dalt – Park Güell car park.
Rules to know
- Pets must be on a lead in the regulated area and are not allowed in Nature Square, the Hypostyle Room, the Dragon Stairway, the Austria Gardens, the Gaudí House Museum or the Laundry Room Portico.
- Bicycles are generally not allowed inside the park.
- No smoking anywhere in the park. Bring water and clothing for the weather.
- Filming or photo shoots need permission, which is only given for scientific or training purposes linked to the heritage.
- The busiest spots (Nature Square, the Hypostyle Room, the Laundry Room Portico, the Dragon Stairway and the Austria Gardens) sit behind a second access control with a one-way route, so expect queues there.
