About This Race
The Mt. Fuji International Marathon, also known as Fujisan Marathon, takes runners on a spectacular loop around Lake Kawaguchiko and Lake Saiko at the foot of Japan's most iconic mountain. Originally established in 1976 as the Lake Kawaguchiko Marathon, the event was reborn in 2012 with its current course design. On clear days, runners enjoy continuous panoramic views of Mt. Fuji throughout the race. The event also offers a 17km Around Kawaguchiko course and a 10.5km Charity Fun Run, making it accessible to all levels.
