This is Southern California at it's finest... gorgeous Santa Monica which boasts beautiful beaches, sumptuous restaurants and a vibrant nightlife. All you have to do is lace up your shoes and walk outside your hotel - the possibilities for a scenic run abound no matter which way you begin. Staying at the lovely Georgian Hotel and want to get out for a run? Of course you do and we've mapped out the perfect, scenic route.

From the moment you walk out of the Georgian for your run, palm trees and ocean breeze will greet you. The Santa Monica oceanfront bike path can be viewed from your run in Palisades Park. Plan on going here later for a relaxing day at the beach.


For this run, head out of the hotel and down the Palisades Park running and walking path. You'll head to the end where you will find the historic totem pole at the end of the park as your turning point. From here you can head back just past the hotel to complete the full three miles.


Want to run a little further than 3 miles? We've mapped out a great 5 mile route that will give you even more beautiful ocean views of Santa Monica. You'll forget that you are on a run as you inhale the salty sea air. This photo is Palisades Park with views of the ocean and the bike path below.


Welcome to paradise and happy running!
