An AFC magnetic recording medium having a three-layered ferromagnetic structure capable of reducing noises without deteriorating thermal stability is provided in order to achieve ultra-high recording density. In one embodiment, the AFC magnetic recording medium has a magnetic recording layer formed on a substrate via an underlayer, the magnetic recording medium consisting of a first ferromagnetic layer formed on the underlayer, a second ferromagnetic layer formed on the first ferromagnetic layer via a nonmagnetic layer inducing the antiferromagnetic interaction, and a third ferromagnetic layer formed on the second ferromagnetic layer, wherein the center of gravity G of the magnetic recording medium is defined using the distance t<SUB>g </SUB>from the upper surface of the third ferromagnetic layer
