Cagliari

Cagliari's running scene centers on flat harbour routes and the Poetto Beach promenade stretching 8km southeast. The CagliariRespira half-marathon (21km) follows the waterfront through the city's low-lying core, making it fast and popular with marathon trainers. Cyclists face a different story—the surrounding hills and the Gennargentu massif rise steeply inland, but coastal roads stay sea-level; most serious hill work requires heading into Sardinia's interior, 30km+ away.
