The Minami Alps Mountain Marathon sends runners across Tenguishi-yama and the Sessokyo gorge in Kawanehon, Shizuoka Prefecture, on a mountain trail of roughly 22 km with about 1,200 m of climbing. There are no aid stations at all, so every runner carries their own food and water and makes their own decisions on the mountain. Entrants take on the course solo or in teams of two to five, all under a six-hour limit, with the field capped at 400. The event is built on the idea that running the trails helps create and nurture the maps of the Minami Alps.
