Oasis class jogging track?

[39august]

Can you walk on the jogging track indicated on deck 5 of deck plans? We always take a morning walk on the promenade deck of ships and would very much dislike not being able to walk while on a cruise.

Yes, the right side of the track is for walking and the left side is for joggers or a lane to pass. There are 2 water fountains at either end as well. I loved it.

As Linda said, yes you can. Although, it's really not meant for a leisurely stroll. It's rather narrow, especially around the front where it narrows to only the width of the 2 lanes. The stern is nice though.

:)I loved the jogging track on the Allure! It was long, well marked, seperate lanes for walkers and joggers. Commng off of the the Eclpse, where the jogging track was an afterthougfht the Allure was so impressive

Personally, I found the jogging track rather depressing. In some spots it was narrow and dark with limited views of the sea. I thought there were more people up on deck walking.

I guess it depends on what you goal is...;)

If you are walking for exercise its perfect, but if you are on a casual stroll, there is nothing to see but lifeboats.

 

it is however and excellent track for jogging as i dont care to sightsee while running.

But the lifeboats are a bit interesting to look at. You get an excellent view of the inside. And hope you never have to go there.

Well, I happen to disagree with both of you, hence my earlier comment. I found the jogging track dim and depressing.

 

We'll have to agree to disagree on this. :)

Dim and Depressing? Not!

Yes, the life boats are there, but not for the entire whole circuit. And, you are not stumbling, avoiding, the sun loungers on the upper decks. We found this deck ideal for our daily three mile walk. Can't run or jog, our knees don't like it.

Next up, Freedom. What kind of walking deck do they have on Freedom?

Like I said, my opinion. I'm glad you liked it.

We sail Freedom on May 8. Our knees don't like running. We will briskly walk 3 miles daily.
