What is the route of the Palermo Half Marathon?

The Palermo Half Marathon starts at Piazza Politeama for a 21 km loop with 160 m D+ (elevation gain), between the seafront and Baroque alleyways. The trap: the first 5 km climb up towards the city’s heights, before an 8 km descent. You’ll pass Via Liberta and the Quattro Canti on this Palermo Half Marathon, far from being a stroll.
