KFMC is the largest medical facility in Saudi Arabia, so it’s no surprise that this health-oriented campus is encircled by a 3.4 km walking/running path. The track follows a triangle created by Makkah Al Mukarramah Road, Prince Abdulaziz Ibn Musaid Ibn Jalawi S, and Prince Fahad Ibn Saad Ibn Abdul Rahman. It’s located in As Sulimaniyah, southeast of Riyah center, and is a great option for those staying at or near the Riyahd Marriott. Here, you’ll find a wide, brick-paved sidewalk lined with palm trees. There will be plenty of other recreators enjoying the park-like, family-oriented atmosphere. It’s even a great spot to run at night, thanks to the well-lit streets.

King Abdullah Park is the largest park in the city. It’s famous for its dancing water fountain displays, sprawling green lawns, and miles of wide stone and brick paths. The perimeter path is 2 km.
Runners will find a 4 km rectangular running/walking path around the campus of Prince Sultan University, just northeast of Riyadh center. There are other 'walkway' paths to enjoy, notably the King Abdullah Flower Path.
Al Safarat, Riyadh’s Diplomatic Quarter, is the among most pedestrian-friendly sections of Riyadh, with numerous designated pathways. Our 12.5 km loop around the perimeter is the best bet for a long run in Riyadh! Numerous additional paths as well.
This long, narrow linear park along the Nahdah Road in east Riyadh offers some of the better long distance running in the city (by Riyadh standards). A “Figure 8” around the park is just over 7 km.
For runners who would like to explore a bit of desert terrain without leaving the city, Wadi Hanifah offers a long dirt pathway along the waterway of the same name. Highlights include the north end in Wadi Hanifa Park and the promenade in Sultanah.
The public King Saud University campus in east Riyadh doesn’t have much to see, but it does have a number of pristine sidewalks where runners can piece together a great loop.
