Madrid is a hub of history and culture, but it’s also surrounded by incredible outdoor experiences. Head to the Sierra de Guadarrama National Park for hiking trails that weave through forests and rugged peaks. For those seeking more excitement, enjoy zip-lining through the treetops or mountain biking along the slopes. Rock climbing in the nearby Sierra Norte offers stunning views of Madrid’s landscape.

If you crave a slower-paced, yet equally exhilarating experience, take a hot air balloon ride over the rolling hills of Castilla-La Mancha or explore the serene waters of the Sierra de Gredos with a kayak. Madrid’s natural beauty awaits with adventure, nature, and plenty of space to roam.
