An updated version for iOS 8.0 using Swift.

import Foundation
import MapKit

class MapViewController: UIViewController, CLLocationManagerDelegate, MKMapViewDelegate{
    var locationManager: CLLocationManager = CLLocationManager()

    @IBOutlet var mapView: MKMapView!

    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()

        // We use a predefined location
        var location = CLLocation(latitude: 46.7667 as CLLocationDegrees, longitude: 23.58 as CLLocationDegrees)

        addRadiusCircle(location)
    }

    func addRadiusCircle(location: CLLocation){
        self.mapView.delegate = self
        var circle = MKCircle(centerCoordinate: location.coordinate, radius: 10000 as CLLocationDistance)
        self.mapView.addOverlay(circle)
    }

    func mapView(mapView: MKMapView!, rendererForOverlay overlay: MKOverlay!) -> MKOverlayRenderer! {
        if overlay is MKCircle {
            var circle = MKCircleRenderer(overlay: overlay)
            circle.strokeColor = UIColor.redColor()
            circle.fillColor = UIColor(red: 255, green: 0, blue: 0, alpha: 0.1)
            circle.lineWidth = 1
            return circle
        } else {
            return nil
        }
    }
}
