Making the Japanese mountains accessible for trail runners through community, knowledge and shared experiences.
Find your pace.
We’re creating a community basecamp for trail runners in the Japanese Alps. A home base in Fujimi, Nagano, where you can train, explore the Japanese Alps and connect with others who want meaningful time outdoors.
This June, we’re running a month-long pilot to test the concept. A small cohort living and training together. Exploring routes, building community, figuring out what this looks like in practice.
This is the foundation for something longer-term. A place where trail runners can base themselves for weeks or months at a time, with consistent access to trails, knowledge sharing and a community that gets it.
