Budapest Sightseeing Running Routes #3a - The Island Run

Level:  

Distance: 14 km + n*5,2 km ( n= circles run on Margaret island running track )

Duration: 65 min +

Tour description: Ideal running course for those, who plan a serious training or have specific goals. With Tour #3 we run until the middle of Margaret Bridge then turn right onto Margaret Island which is the real Mecca for Budapest runners. If you would like to meet lots of local runners, joggers, this is the place to go.  The island has a rubber running path all around which forms a 5,2 km circle. The area is a city park, which has nice clean air, as cars are not allowed on the island. This running spot is also suitable to do interval and fast trainings. If you choose to run only on the island and skip the city, you can reach it by Tram #4-6 and (operates up and down the Grand Boulevard) get off at “Margitsziget” stop at the middle of Margaret Bridge
