Are you going to Royal Run this year you should definitely read this
Routes with history and scenic experiences
In Ribe, Denmark’s oldest city, the route goes through the beautiful old streets of the city, where participants start at the cathedral and experience the wings of history from the first step. In Viborg, the participants get the pleasure of moving through the iconic old districts and along Søndersø, while Horsens presents routes that pass, among other things, past Denmark’s widest pedestrian street, the Industrial Museum and the prison, where the trip takes place both outside and inside doors.
In Korsør, the start is at the Harbor Square, where the water and the view of the Great Belt Bridge and the city’s naval station can be enjoyed, while Copenhagen this year gets a starting area at Kongens Nytorv, and ends the Royal Run with a spectacular target portal in the colonnade at Amalienborg.
