Cerro del Tío Pío Park

4.7 ·

Head up Cerro del Tío Pío, the hillside park where Madrileños go to watch the sun go down. Climb the grassy slopes for sweeping panoramic views over the city, far from the usual tourist crowds.

📖

Full description

Cerro del Tío Pío is a hilly park in Puente de Vallecas, used mainly by locals for walking, cycling and sport. Its main draw is elevation: grassy slopes that climb to wide panoramic views across Madrid, which makes it a popular spot at sunrise and sunset.

Reviewers note that tourists are rare and that it is easy to reach by metro on Line 1. A visit of around an hour covers a climb to the top and time to sit and watch the skyline change colour.
