Tour My Run!Tour My Run!Nice is a city you run with the Baie des Anges as your backdrop, between sea, hills and gardens. The Promenade des Anglais unrolls its flat, sunlit seafront, Castle Hill overlooks the Old Town with a 360° panorama, and the Coulée verte ties it all together with a ribbon of gardens. On TourMyRun, a local runner takes you along their routes: the Promenade at sunrise, the climb to the Castle, the Paillon Coulée verte, the Mont Boron trails. Not a standard circuit: one hour with a Niçois who knows the best links, flat or uphill, and the right tempo facing the Mediterranean.
Come, I'll take you running
To get taken running in Nice, 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 is a Niçois who loves to run and knows the Promenade and the hills alike. They pick the seafront to cruise on the flat or the Castle and Mont Boron for elevation and views, depending on your level and the heat. Many of our guides here are running-club members and Côte d’Azur University students who live the coast every day.
Looking for someone to run with in Nice? 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 Nice 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.
