UNAM is the largest university in Latin America, and boasts one of the largest campuses in the world. This public campus, and the surrounding “University City,” make for a great run. We've mapped a 12 km loop, but good options to create your own.
This lengthy, paved multi-use path offers offers many km of off-road running for those in the southern neighborhoods of Mexico City.
Some nice running options in neighborhood parks: Parque Bicentenario (San Lorenzo); Alameda Oriente: (near the airport); La Mexican (Lomas de Santa Fe); Embarcadero Tezozomoc (Prados del Rosario).
Mexico City is a relatively huge urban sprawl, but that doesn’t make it impossible to get out of the city and enjoy some trail running.
