3rd Ichinomiya Photo Rogaining

About this event

The "3rd Ichinomiya Photo Rogaining" will be held in Ichinomiya City, Aichi Prefecture. In this sport, participants use a map to visit checkpoints within a set time limit to collect points. Teams strategize and photograph checkpoints matching sample photos. The numbers on the map represent the points earned, and the team with the highest total score wins. Participants can walk or run, enjoying sightseeing while partaking in the sport. The host city, Ichinomiya, is located halfway between Nagoya and Gifu, blending nature with urban convenience. Having flourished as a transportation hub since ancient times, it is also famous as part of the "Bishu textile region," one of the world's top three wool fabric centers. Furthermore, Ichinomiya is renowned as the birthplace of the "morning service" cafe culture, a unique tradition where light breakfast items are provided free of charge when ordering a drink. Marking its 3rd edition, this event features an increased number of checkpoints, refreshed categories, and special awards, giving every team a chance to win prizes. On event day, warm hospitality by local shops is planned at each checkpoint, and all participants will receive wonderful commemorative gifts. Through photo rogaining, participants can spend a special day with family and friends while experiencing Ichinomiya's history, culture, and local charm.
