About this event
Held in Naka Town, Tokushima Prefecture, the '6th Naka Kito Cedar Log Running Competition' is a thrilling race set on Kawaguchi Dam Lake in front of Momijigawa Onsen, surrounded by beautiful nature, where competitors run across logs lined up on the surface of the lake. It is an extreme race where a sense of balance and speed are key, competing in timed battles. This year, the logs have been renewed and the race will be held in a fully straight 2-person side-by-side format. The application quota has also been expanded to 100 participants, seeking even more challengers. A grueling race development is expected, with the winner of the men's division running on the logs 5 times and the winner of the women's division 4 times. Beyond the race, stand-up paddleboarding (SUP) experiences (paid), food trucks, and food stalls will be present to liven up the event. Kana Hasegawa will join as a guest MC, bringing further excitement to the venue. It is an ideal event for creating the best memories on the last day of summer vacation.
