A lubrication structure for a four-stroke engine to lubricate driving parts by supplying oil stored in an oil tank provided separately from a crank chamber, using pressure fluctuation in the crank chamber, includes: a first circulating route to supply the oil from the oil tank to the crank chamber and return oil mist generated in the crank chamber to the oil tank; a second circulating route to supply the oil mist from the oil tank to a valve operating mechanism and return to the oil tank; a discharge passageway to discharge blowby gas contained during circulation of the oil from the second circulating route to a combustion chamber; and a partition wall to separate between the crank chamber and the oil tank. A central part of the partition wall is located vertically above a surface of the oil stored in the oil tank even if an engine body is tilted.
