Teleférico de Madrid & Casa de Campo
Teleférico de Madrid
An aerial cable car that flies from the Parque del Oeste over the Manzanares River to Madrid’s largest park, with views of the Royal Palace and the city skyline.
The cable car has been in operation since 1969. Departing from the Parque del Oeste, it flies for about 11 minutes over the Rose Garden and the Manzanares River to Casa de Campo. The full route is about 2.5 km long, and the car reaches a maximum height of about 40 m above ground. Along the way you can see the Royal Palace, the Almudena Cathedral and the city skyline. Round-trip tickets cost about €6 to €8. Casa de Campo covers roughly 1,700 hectares and includes lake boating, Madrid Zoo and an amusement park. Operating hours change with the seasons. In winter it often runs only on weekends, so check the official website before you go.
