Hinodeyama Trail Run

A manageable half-day out of Tokyo, following a forested ridge through Konpira-san and Asoyama before the final climb to Hinodeyama (902m). The summit has a wide open view stretching to the Tokyo skyline on a clear day. The descent drops down to Tsururu Onsen, where you can soak and eat before heading back to the city.

A good step up from a beginner event without being overwhelming. No technical terrain, just solid trail running with a rewarding finish.
