2026 CROSS MISSION & MOTORADA Michinoku Adventure Rally

About this event

Marking its 5th milestone edition, the 'Michinoku Adventure Rally & Sports Rally' will be held. As part of the extensive riding route set within Hachimantai City, a course running across the ski slopes of 'Appi Kogen' debuts for the first time. Adventure motorcycles gathered from across the country will ride through the vast ski resort location, which is usually not accessible for riding. A checkpoint will be set up in front of the Appi Resort Center (next to the stairs), allowing spectators to watch the impressive riding up close. This is an off-road touring rally that does not compete on speed; its purpose is to enjoy the local scenery and roads while riding at your own pace along routes connecting forest roads and public roads. The routes, navigation, and support system are well-prepared so that first-time rally participants and those who have never ridden on forest roads can easily join. Navigation can be done using just a smartphone, with no special rally navigation equipment required. A support system is in place with staff ready to head to the scene to handle any unforeseen troubles. The Adventure Rally series is an event supporting challenges in off-roading.
