The routes guide participants past Slavija Square, down Nemanjina Street, and into the historic Brankova Street corridor. From there, runners cross the Brankov Bridge, with the Marathon and Half Marathon stretching through modern boulevards like Bulevar Nikole Tesle and Bulevar Mihajla Pupina, looping over the striking Ada Bridge, and weaving through New Belgrade’s broad avenues.
