Buenos Aires is a city best run at dawn, when the light skims the Río de la Plata and the heat hasn't yet filled the avenues. Behind the European façades and the energy of tango, the porteño capital hides kilometres of green spaces and flat riverside paths made for running. On TourMyRun, a local runner takes you along their routes: the paths of El Rosedal and the Palermo woods, the wild perimeter loop of the Reserva Ecológica Costanera Sur along the river, the car-free docks of Puerto Madero at sunset, or the Costanera Norte facing the water. Not a tour bus, not a random jog around your hotel: one hour of running with someone who lives here, at your pace, who knows the best circuits, the softest surfaces and the right tempo.

To get taken running in Buenos Aires, book a run on TourMyRun: a local runner welcomes you and their group at a meeting point, and you set off along their route, at your own pace, for the length of a run — often around an hour. You never run alone, and there's nothing for you to organise.

Get the free guideYour guide isn't a service provider — they're a porteño who loves to run and wants to show you their city. They adjust the pace and distance to your level, and pick the route to suit the hour and the heat — the shaded woods in the morning, the Puerto Madero docks at sunset, the Reserve when it's open. Many of our Buenos Aires guides are running-club members and sports students who know every training loop and the best surface for your legs. You leave with a real memory — and often a GPX track to run again on your own.
Looking for someone to run with in Buenos Aires? A local is ready to go. Rather than running alone in a city you don't know, you join a resident who already runs this ground: they open up their route, match the pace to yours, and show you the city on the move.
Not here for the performance? Many guides offer an easy-paced discovery run — a gentle jog, almost at walking pace, to see the city without racing through it. You stop at the viewpoints and take the time to look: it's a way to discover Buenos Aires on the move with a local, at a pace that lets you take everything in.
Yes. On TourMyRun, a run is led by a local who welcomes a small group of runners: you join others — visitors or locals — for a shared group run, without ever having to run alone. It's the group of a TourMyRun run, led by a resident — not an outside club or crew.
Public, well-known routes you can run on your own — a solid plan B to get moving right away. But the best of TourMyRun is still discovering them with a local who takes you, at your pace.

Your guide is a passionate amateur, not a professional. They are not paid: what you pay covers the organisation and a contribution towards the costs they incur — never a wage, never a service contract. It's a run between runners, not a ticketed tour.
Early morning or late afternoon is best, especially in the austral summer (December–February). Your guide picks the hour, the shade and the route so you run in the cool — and remember your water. Each listing shows distance, duration and pace.
Usually around 1 hour, but it depends on the run you pick — each listing shows distance, duration and pace.
