No. 6 Snowboard and Ski
I recently went snowboarding for the first time. I can say there is no feeling like the one you get when you are on top of that mountain shredding away.
Madrid Snow Zone offers 365 days of snow! If this is your first time, they provide beginning level slopes. Black slopes are available for those who dare. Have some fun showing off your skilled tricks.
For outdoor skiing options, you can go to Puerto de Navacerrada, Valdesqui, or La Pinilla. Puerto Navacerrada is the closest and smallest slopes of the three. La Pinilla is the farthest slope, but it’s considered the best in Madrid. For more detailed information about the slopes, click here.
No. 5 Baby Bull Running
You know what they say, “when in Spain do as the Spaniard do.” Wait, no that’s Rome. Either way, who hasn’t dreamed of being chased by a baby bull? It’s time to make your dream of becoming a Spanish torero come true with the Spain Event. Step into the ring and see if you can outrun a bull.
No. 4 Canyoning / Rock Climb
Espacio Accion is a rock climbing facility that has been around since 1994. They teach, organize, and realize activities related to indoor and outdoor climbing and hiking. Tighten your harness, watch your step, And whatever you do, do not look down!

I think by far this is the scariest adrenaline filled activity I will ever dream of doing. Salto Alto offers all type of jumping.

Birthday discounts are also available if you are are brave enough to jump on the day of your birthday.
