Madrid Río & Casa de Campo E-Bike Tour

Discover Madrid's green side on this guided e-bike tour through two of the city's most significant outdoor spaces.

The tour combines urban parks, contemporary architecture, and natural landscapes, offering a fresh perspective on Madrid beyond its famous museums and plazas.

Your route takes you along the Manzanares River through Madrid Río, crossing modern pedestrian bridges and passing public art installations. From there, you'll enter Casa de Campo, one of Europe's largest urban parks, where tree-lined paths lead to a peaceful lake and scenic viewpoints. The e-bikes make the journey effortless, allowing you to cover more ground whilst your guide shares local stories and historical insights.

Madrid Río: Riverside Cycling and City Views

The tour begins at Madrid Río, the transformed riverside area along the Manzanares. You'll pedal through this urban oasis, passing recreational spaces, gardens, and striking contemporary bridges. The route offers excellent photo opportunities with views of the Royal Palace and Madrid's skyline as a backdrop.

Your guide points out the area's transformation from traffic-heavy zones to pedestrian-friendly green spaces, explaining how Madrid Río has become a favourite spot for locals. The riverside path showcases public art and sculptures, adding cultural elements to the natural setting.

Casa de Campo: Europe's Largest Urban Park

Casa de Campo spans over 1,700 hectares of forests, meadows, and pathways. Originally royal hunting grounds, this vast park now serves as Madrid's main green lung. The e-bike tour takes you through tree canopies to secluded areas most tourists never see, including the park's tranquil lake where locals relax and spot wildlife.

The forested trails and open meadows provide a stark contrast to Madrid's urban centre. Your guide reveals the park's history whilst leading you through its hidden corners, from wooded paths to lookout points with panoramic views across the city.
