On the Capo Bellavista peninsula in Ogliastra, the 6th edition of the Arbatax Running Experience will take place on 23 September. The 8-km-long UISP race, organised in collaboration with the ASD TriSinnai, will take place in the inner streets of the Arbatax Park Resort tourist complex and along the streets of the seaside village of Arbatax and Porto Frailis. Numerous climbs and descents for a challenging course in a breathtaking location, passing through the Bellavista Nature Park, which is home to numerous animals and is characterised by splendid cliffs overlooking the sea. The new evocative route will follow for long stretches the old route of the famous ‘Marcialonga dei tre mari’ (Three Seas Marathon), which was held in Arbatax for many editions around the 1980s.
You too can run in one of Sardinia’s most exclusive locations alongside the champions of the Italian National Athletics Team. An opportunity not to be missed amidst the lush nature of the Bellavista Park and the views of the Arbatax Park Resort, winner of the Best Eco Resort in the World award.
