'Japan's Three Sacred Mountains Rally 2026' Touring Fuji, Tateyama, and Hakusan — Entries Open July 21

For a 'training rally' like this, can you go anytime within the deadline, or is there a fixed schedule?

'Just visit the famous peaks' sounds nice, but some rallies like this end up being a grind of just chewing through distance.

The three sacred peaks probably have some serious elevation change too, so just completing the mountain sections should be part of the sense of accomplishment.

Entries open July 21st, huh — I go back and forth every year on whether this is finally the year I sign up.

Being able to go at your own pace with this training-rally format means you don't have to force a tight schedule — makes it easier to actually stick with it.

A tour of the three sacred peaks — Fuji, Tateyama, and Hakusan — just that combination sounds like it'll rack up some serious mileage.
