Yoyogi Park Running Route (2.2 km)

Getting there

Start at the round patterned plaza by the clock tower, just outside Harajuku Gate. It is about three minutes on foot from the West Exit of JR Harajuku Station or Exit 2 of Meiji-jingumae Station.

On the run

Head into the park and run counterclockwise with the Central Field on your left. You pass the Pine of Military Parade and the fenced Bird Sanctuary, then curve around the north end of the field by the Dog Run. The way back follows the park’s southern edge, with the roof of Yoyogi National Gymnasium across the road.
