You can go around the whole of West Lake too – think its around 15km. West side is along a busy road, but still very runnable. East side (where my map is) is much quieter, hence why I used to run there. Enjoy Hanoi!

I’m Lester a traveler from the Philippines, I just want to say thanks for this post, you just gave me a running route! I’m planning to visit Hanoi next year for the Mid-Automn Festival. So I hope it would be a great experience.

Thanks again! ciao

Thanks for the post. Unfortunately I no longer live in Vietnam. However if you want a group to meet up with for a run, I’d highly recommend the Red River Runners – they have a google group here http://groups.google.ie/group/redriverrunners?hl=en-GB . They meet on Saturday afternoons for runs around West Lake and Chiputra. A lot are into marathon running.

Best of luck for your 2010 training!
Moire

Are you still running around West Lake? I am Vietnamese but live abroad. I’m heading home for the summer and am looking for a running group or running buddy to continue my training for a fall 2010 marathon. Looks like a lap around West Lake is almost 9 miles, so that’s perfect for a long run. Let me know if you are still in Vietnam, and I’d love to meet up for a run!

Best,
- Trang
