Miyajima Marathon
March 30
¥5,500
A challenging 15km out-and-back road race that starts from near the Miyajima ferry port.
The 15km course runs along the coast to Tsutsumigaura Beach Park, before throwing in the rollercoaster mountain road to Iri-no-hama Beach - and that just half way!
5km and 2km (including a 2km-family run) courses also on offer.
Please note that the course does not take in the giant torii gate, Miyajima's historical district, or Momijidani Park. Held on March 30, however, there is a good chance that you will catch some cherry blossoms!
