Rather than walk to the park, fork over a couple of euros and ride the short teleférico (cable car, Metro, Argüelles) from Paseo del
Pinto Rosales into the center of Casa de Campo, the city’s largest park (4,000 acres). It’s just west of the Palacio Real along the trickling Manzanares River.
It was once a royal hunting ground but is now a magnet for joggers, nature seekers (yes, this is about as wild as Madrid gets outside of its nightlife), tennis players and swimmers. To stay dry, rent a rowboat and paddle around the man-made lake. Better yet, climb down the hill and head for the city zoo (Zoo Acuarium de Madrid) with “over 3,000 animals from five different continents!” Don’t miss the dolphin shows and the aquarium full of sharks, barracudas and rays.
