We start with a park situated in the capital itself, the <strong>Parque de la Cu\u00f1a Verde de la Latina<\/strong>, also known as the <strong>Cerro de la Mica<\/strong>. It is a large green park with fantastic <a href=\"http:\/\/www.shmadrid.com\/blog\/en\/views-faro-de-moncloa\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>viewpoints<\/strong><\/a>, from where you can have amazing views of Madrid. The park has many facilities for children, such as a children&#8217;s area with boat-shaped swings, a sports area that include a climbing wall, and there is also a bike route, where you can hop on your <a href=\"http:\/\/www.shmadrid.com\/blog\/en\/where-to-buy-used-bicycles-in-madrid\/\"><strong>bicycle<\/strong><\/a> for a fun ride. You can also visit the three rose gardens. When they are in full bloom, they turn the park into a beautiful place and it has several water features. One of the best parks in Madrid to take your children is located in the district of <strong>Vallecas<\/strong>. It is the <strong>Cerro del T\u00edo P\u00edo<\/strong>, also called <strong>Parque de las 7 Tetas<\/strong>. It is an ideal spot for families who need a break on the weekends, with views of the city that are absolutely spectacular. From this viewpoint you can see Madrid in a totally different way, and you can also enjoy large lawns, where you can have an excellent day out in the open with your family. It is also the perfect location for a delicious picnic without having to leave the capital.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Related article:\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.shmadrid.com\/blog\/en\/campsites-vicinity-madrid\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Campsites in the Vicinity of Madrid<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_8612\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.shmadrid.com\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/jump-2524300_1920.jpg\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8612\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-8612\" src=\"http:\/\/www.shmadrid.com\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/jump-2524300_1920-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.shmadrid.com\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/jump-2524300_1920-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.shmadrid.com\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/jump-2524300_1920-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.shmadrid.com\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/jump-2524300_1920-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.shmadrid.com\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/jump-2524300_1920-640x427.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.shmadrid.com\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/jump-2524300_1920-810x540.jpg 810w, https:\/\/www.shmadrid.com\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/jump-2524300_1920-1140x760.jpg 1140w, https:\/\/www.shmadrid.com\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/jump-2524300_1920.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-8612\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Photo via Pixabay<\/em><\/p><\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Another fun option in the capital is <strong>Madrid R\u00edo<\/strong>. It consists of almost 10 kilometers of green parks and playgrounds for the whole family to enjoy. Seventeen areas dedicated to children\u2019s entertainment have been distributed throughout Madrid R\u00edo, so if you encounter that one place is too crowded, you can always go to the next. It is perfect for doing <a href=\"http:\/\/www.shmadrid.com\/blog\/en\/ice-skating-madrid\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>sports<\/strong><\/a> with your children or to have a relaxed picnic. When the weather is good, you always unwind more, so do not forget to go here in summer, and pay a visit to its urban beach. In <strong>San Sebastian de los Reyes<\/strong> you will find another great park for you and your children. The <strong>Ciudad de Los Ni\u00f1os<\/strong> has a large picnic area with tables and benches under the trees, extensive green lawns to rest after playing together, two small lakes, swings and zip lines, a balance circuit made of wood, a skating rink where you can practice various sports, a giant castle with slides and a wooden house with slides for the little ones with swing hammocks, in addition to many other spectacular attractions.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Have you visited any of these parks in the capital?
