Forêt métropolitaine, Urban forest project in Madrid, Spain
The Bosque Metropolitano extends across 75 kilometers around Madrid, incorporating over 450,000 trees and creating a continuous environmental corridor through the city.
The land of Bosque Metropolitano previously served as Madrid's primary source for clay and stone extraction, supporting the city's construction needs through multiple decades.
The forest design integrates local recreational traditions by including specific areas for cultural activities, sports facilities, and community gathering spaces throughout its extension.
The green belt features dedicated paths for walking and cycling, connecting different neighborhoods while offering natural shade and rest areas for visitors.
This forest will become Europe's largest urban reforestation project, with the capacity to absorb 170,000 tons of carbon emissions per year.
