Swarn Jayanti, also known as Japanese Park, is the go-to running option in the north of the city. This expansive space in Rohini has plenty of great paths, most of which are covered with stone pavers and lined with lovely plantings and greenery. While the park is large enough for runners to make their own route around the trails, one of the most popular options is to run the perimeter of the park, which totals about 4.6 km.
