3rd Nishitokyo City Rogaine 2025

Overview

The 3rd Nishitokyo City Rogaine 2025, held on Saturday, November 29, 2025, is a vibrant urban orienteering event in Nishitokyo City, Tokyo, hosted by the Nishitokyo City Rogaine Executive Committee and sponsored by Nishitokyo City. Starting and finishing at the Asahi Karinto Nishitokyo City Sports Center B1F Gymnasium 1, this rogaine invites solo runners and groups (2–5 people) to explore checkpoints across Nishitokyo and surrounding wards within 3-hour or 5-hour time limits. With a capacity of 400 participants, it offers divisions for Men’s, Women’s, Mixed, and Family (including at least one child under elementary school age) in both classes, plus Men’s and Women’s Solo categories. Participants use a provided map (1:17,000 scale) to photograph checkpoints, with scores tallied via smartphone. The event celebrates Nishitokyo’s Musashino charm—wide skies and greenery—while promoting geography, history, and community engagement. Maps and participation prizes are mailed to non-attendees, and awards are given to top finishers. Applications are open from September 1 to November 22, 2025, with X posts praising its “fun, exploratory vibe and community spirit.”
