A good running spot in the Bandra area. Just north of Mahim Bay and a few km west of the Grand Hyatt Mumbai. It’s possible to run about 1.5 km along the road, ending at the modest Joggers Park at the south end. The park is next to the Otters Club. A good starting point is the Yoga House. Best to go early, as it gets crowded: more than 2,000 visitors on a typical weekday! The park jogging track is 400 meters long. It features a mud strip for running and two paved tracks for walking or jogging. This website has updated information about jogging in the park.
From there, continue south through the Chumbai Village, along the joggable main road, to the Bandstand Promenade, which starts next to Childrens Garden and is a very pleasant dedicated path that runs south for 1 km paralleling BJ Rd. It’s a total 2.5 km one-way from Joggers Park to Bandra Fort and Mount Mary Basilica.

Quick overview of running in Mumbai, organized by area and by type of run. More than 15 of the best spots in Mumbai -- on the water, best roads, tracks, and parks & gardens.
One of the best spots for continuous road running in Mumbai. It's just over 4 km from Wilson College to Nariman point, on a path along the beach with views to the Arabian Sea and the Mumbai skyline.
At 27 acres, the largest park in Mumbai. Situated on the Arabian Sea and a popular spot for cricket. For running, there's a 1.3 km path around the perimeter. Can be combined with surrounding (posh) residential area and beach.
One of the more unique running experience. Run around the ~2km horse racing track. Good mud surface. Open to runners from 5am-9am and 4pm-8pm. No admission charge.
A decent road running option, near the Four Seasons and the Nehru Science Center/Art Gallery. It's about 3km along the road. Can be combined with the Mahalaxmi Race Course, a 2km horse track open to runners.
An oasis for running in South Mumbai. The 20 acre park is on the sea, featuring a 400-meter synthetic Olympic Track, 500-meter dirt track, and an artificial beach. Other sports facilities as well. Green and well maintained.
Good running options in the Juhu area, near the airport. Versova and Juhu beaches are good for running, with width and packed sand. 'Joggers Park', is a green oasis nearby. Near good hotels.
One of the best spots for running in Navi Mumbai. 2.5 km path around a pond in a dedicated park. Quite pretty and isolated from traffic. There's a bridge connecting to a mini seashore.
A decent stretch for running in Navi Mumbai. Busy road running along the coast, with some shoulder in some sections. A 1.6 km stretch is closed to vehicles Sunday morning. Also a nice 2.7 km loop around Nerul Lake.
This northern suburb of Mumbai has some of the area's better developed roads. We've put together a lovely run including a tour of the Hiranandani Garden, 1.4 km promenade along Lake Powai, and a jaunt down to Forest Park.
Large national park just north of Mumbai. There are several nature trails that make for good trail running. Other activities in the park include boating, a safari, and hiking.
