Dyukivsky Garden, also known as Odesa City Garden, is a lovely oasis in the western part of Odesa, and a good spot for a short run. Squeezed between the M16 and the train line, the garden has a series of pleasant paths, a couple of small ponds, and a couple of grand older buildings at its center. There are ~3 km of paths in the park.

If you’d like to access Dyukivsky Garden from central Odesa, it’s about 2.5 km. We recommend Didrikhsona St., or Rozkydailivs’ka St., which are wide, tree-lined boulevards. There’s also very good tram access.
