Duryu Park, located in the Dalseo District, is one of the best parks for running in Daegu. The landscaped park features the World 83 Tower, a concert hall, a swimming pool, other sports facilities, and a library. There are several km of walking paths, and a cycle loop. The park features 133 species of trees and plants.  Note: Hilly!  Pro Tip: Especially beautiful in spring for cherry blossoms and autumn with foliage!

We’ve mapped a running route of the outer perimeter path, which makes for a 4.5 km loop. Start at the park entrance near the library, and follow the path. A particularly nice section is the 0.7 km loop around Cathedral Pond, which features a scenic bridge and two Buddhist temples.
