This popular resort area to the north of Marrakech has some of the finest road running in the city. If you’re staying in one of the hotels here, it’s an ideal addition to the grounds right outside your door, and car traffic in this area is relatively light. In addition to extravagant resorts, runners will find an oasis of desert palm trees where camels lounge in the shade. To create a loop, a great addition is the road along the east bank of the Oued Issil. The loop in full is about 10 km.

Other Routes in Marrakech, Morocco
Our 10 km 'runseeing tour' of Marrakesh includes several of the city's main sites: numerous palaces and gardens, the Koutoubia Mosque, Place de l’Hivernage, Place des Ferblantiers, Saadien’s Tombs & more. Go early to beat the heat and crowds!
Run the garden-lined median of Boulevard Mohammed VI, which runs 8 km between Chamo El Ghoul and Agdal. Add on loops of Oliveraie Park, Menara Gardens, or Cyber Park for more distance.
The beautiful and historic Menara Gardens offer about 4 km of paths. Extend your route along Avenue Prince Moulay Rachid and add loops of Oliveraie Park/Cyber Park for a longer run.
Take a long run of up to 18 km on the wide dirt path outside the time-tested Medina Walls. It’s a good way to explore the historic old city while avoiding the crowds, and can be shortened by passing back through any gate.
A prize section of the Walls of Medina, or a great run on its own, the grounds of the Agdal Gardens feature over 10 km of pathways through orchards. Continue on Oasis Hassan II/ Route Golf Royal for a longer loop.
