Takayama's 3rd Ultra Marathon!

Takayama's 3rd Annual Ultra Marathon


For the third year in row, Takayama will host an insane 100km marathon! The course starts in the center of Takayama city, passes through the old town, continues out into the mountains past many beautiful rivers and then ends in the Hida Furukawa region.

There will be two courses. You can see the full 100km course and the 72km course by clicking the link below:

The marathon will have three separate start times starting from 4:45, 5:00 & 5:15am all starting infront of the Takayama City Hall.

Unfortunately, participation is no longer possible!
The costs for participation were 16,000 yen for the 100km course and 12,000 for the 72km course respectively.

Even if you have no interest in participating in this event, assuming you can get up at 4:30am you will be able to spectate this behemoth of a marathon!

We hope to see you here!
