Palm Beach is a stretch of road about 10 kilometers long, running parallel to the coast, which goes to CBD Belapur. The west side of the road is along the coast and features a mangrove preserve. It is a busy traffic road with 3 lanes in each direction.
This is a popular area for running, as it is smooth and well manicured. There’s a sidewalk/shoulder in parts. Most runners go early before there’s too much traffic. Our map is one of the nicer stretches, 3.5 km one-way between the Ahilya Gokul Patil Rd. and the T S Chanakya area. The 1.6-km section between Vazirani signal and T S Chanakya signal is blocked for vehicles every Sunday from 6am to 9am.
As part of this run, also enjoy Nerul Lake (also called Sea Woods). There is a dedicated path which makes for a pleasant 2.7 km (1.7 mile) loop.

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.
Carter Road is one of the better waterside roads for running, fairly wide. Best stretch goes for ~1 km, to Joggers Park, which has a 400m track for running or walking. Continue to Bandra Fort, about 2.5 km, using Bandstand Promenade
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.
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.
