Playing with the earth, the ultimate mud play
XTERRA JAPAN 2023 Nenoue Highland
Off-Road Triathlon “XTERRA” will be held in nenouekogen, Gifu prefecture in Japan.
About 1 hour from Nagoya. Why don’t you enjoy off-roading to the fullest in the cool highlands at an altitude of 1,000m, where it is cool even in mid-summer?
You can participate according to your level, from “Sprint” (200m swim / 6km MTB / 2km trail run) with a time limit of 2 hours to “Full Distance” (1.5km swim / 25km MTB / 10km trail run) with a time limit of 8 hours.
If you are not comfortable biking off-road, duathlon/aquathlon is for you!
Concept
By hosting XTERRA JAPAN 2023 Nenoue Highland, we will promote sports tourism together with a lot of people involved in tourism and forest conservation, such as by developing a tourist town utilizing the local resources around Nenoue Kogen, attracting training camps, and disseminating information domestically and internationally. The purpose of this race is to educate the public about the protection and maintenance of nature in the satoyama area, including the lake, and to contribute to the development of the Nenoue Highlands area as a nature experience type activity.
