Stroll Madrid Río, the long green ribbon that follows the Manzanares through the city. Walk among boxwood gardens, spread out a picnic on the lawns and watch locals jog and cycle along the water.
Full description
Madrid Río is a linear park built along the Manzanares, mixing formal boxwood gardens with riverside paths, playgrounds for children of different ages and open lawns. Reviewers use it for walking, running and picnicking, and note the drinking water spigots and the quiet atmosphere.
The river itself is small, but it gives the park its character and some wildlife. A typical visit lasts around ninety minutes, and the generous walking distances make it better suited to an active outing than a short sit.
