31 July - 07 August 2026 inclusive.
Tour price AU$6000 *$1000 deposit taken at time of booking.
An immersive tour exploring The Central Alps, within Nagano Prefecture, Japan.
Don’t let the total distance fool you, as it is a beefy, jam packed 90km. We explore different mountain ranges including Yarigatake, Yatsugatake and beautiful mountain towns including Takayama, Kamikochi and Matsumoto. Lots of stunning ridges, summitting the 3rd highest mountain in Japan for sunrise whilst also experiencing the beautifully preserved towns of Tsumago/Magome on the Nakasendo trail.
Includes 6 days of running, 90km total distance and 4,000m approx of climbing.
15-25km days at your own pace (run when you can, hike fast when you can’t). Staying mostly in 3/4* hotels with one night up at 3000m at Yarigatake Sanso Mountain Hut.
The terrain is steep and technical, and two days you will have a slightly heavier pack for an overnighter at a mountain hut. Distances will be between 15-25km (run when you can, hike fast when you can’t). Elevation on our big mountain days will be towards 2000m.
IMPORTANT*** There are many stunning ridgeline sections on this tour involving chains, multiple ladders and drop offs. You are of course safe if you are steady and slow on your feet BUT if you have any aversion or are scared of heights, please consider carefully!
We are limited to 10 spots on this tour, so if you’d like to join us in Japan for 2026, go for it!!
