The Jeddah Corniche is the signature run in Jeddah. The Corniche itself is the 30 km coastal resort area of the city of Jeddah, featuring parks & recreation areas, pavilions, large-scale civic sculptures, and King Fahd’s Fountain — the highest fountain in the world. A wide, palm tree-lined waterfront path runs for 11 km from the Al Rahma Mosque south to City Park, where the Al Kurnaysh Road turns inland. There are great views of the Red Sea the whole way. Along the Corniche, there’s also the Jeddah Waterfront — a dedicated running & cycling track. Pro Tip: Beautiful sunsets!

For variety, the Walk Of Prince Faisal Bin Fahad runs just inland from the Corniche path for 3.4 km from Al Nawras Park north to Happy Landing Park. Some key points along the way, from north to south:
