About the Nice Half Marathon
The Nice Half Marathon traces the stunning French Riviera coastline in Mediterranean splendor. Runners follow the famous Promenade des Anglais with the azure sea on one side and Belle Époque architecture on the other. April's perfect spring conditions showcase blooming gardens and clear skies as participants enjoy a predominantly flat course with occasional gentle rises. The route balances urban sophistication with natural beauty, passing through charming neighborhoods before returning to the seafront. French spectators bring classically understated encouragement with occasional bursts of Provençal enthusiasm. This race captures the Côte d'Azur's distinctive character—elegantly refined yet naturally beautiful—offering both personal best potential and immersion into the sophisticated Mediterranean lifestyle that has drawn visitors to Nice for centuries.
