For 3 hours you will discover the Parque del Oeste, the Manzanares River, and Casa de Campo - one of the largest public parks in the world - all on cycling paths. Our guides will talk you through the parks’ history, from the beginnings as royal hunting grounds, to its use as a front line during the Spanish Civil War.
