There are many parks, gardens and garden squares at St. Petersburg and many of them are great for jogging. If you live at Krasnogvardeysky district, you can choose the Malinovka park for your und: it’s open around the clock and the pathways are wide and curving. At Petrogradsky district the most popular running spot is Elagin Ostrov park with its dirt roads and paved pathways, isolated location, a large running circle with a length of 5 km (3 mi) and Saturday races. The park also has several open-air athletic fields that can be used for stretching beforehand.
In addition to the Elagin Ostrov the joggers also choose Primosky Victory park — it’s rather flat and you can run along the wide Batareynaya Doroga, or take the narrow pathways. People who live at Admiralteysky district take their runs in the Summer Garden or the Catherinehof park. The former would be good for those who don’t mind large crowds as the park is quite popular among both the locals and guests, while the latter would be great for those who like to change their running patterns a lot: the park is criss-crossed by so many pathways that you can run along the new route every single day. The park is also equipped with open-air weight-lifting machines, the rings and a chin-up bar.
The residents of Nevsky district run at Kurakina Dacha park. The advantage of this park is the hilly landscape. The route can be expanded: coming up from the Neva River, the park is split in parts by the Obukhovskoy Oborony avenue, while to the west of the park is the Krasnye Zori boulevard.
The joggers who live in the Central district like the Taurida Garden: its pathways are filled with granite gravel, there is an open-air playground for stretching and night-time lights make evening jogging a comfortable experience.
The joggers of Moskovsky district run around Moskovsky Victory park. If you run around all the ponds and outskirts of the garden, your route will total 2.5 km (1.5 mi).

Saint Petersburg Stadium, designed by the Japanese architect Kisho Kurokawa, is one of the most technologically sophisticated sports arenas in Europe. Some of its cool features are the retractable roof, which takes only 15 minutes to open or close, and the roll-out pitch, which can be deployed for all kinds of mass events.
The arena is located in the westerly part of Krestovsky Island, replacing the historical Sergey Kirov Stadium. It’s a great location, and its transportation accessibility has been much improved by 2018, what with the new Novokrestovskaya Metro station and the new pedestrian bridge linking the island with the southern coast of Primorsky District.
