Event Details

Date Saturday, March 29-Sunday, March 30, 2025  ※Rain or Shine
Saita-March Minuma Two-Day Walk Saitama City boasts a fine balance of bustling urban areas and lush natural spaces. Minuma Tambo is a greenspace that sprawls across the center of the city. This rural landscape of rice paddies, fields, and wooded slopes fed by rivers and the Minuma Daiyosui Canal is full of natural spaces where plants and animals thrive- a precious rarity in the suburbs of Tokyo.

The Saita-March Minuma Two-Day Walk is an event aimed to improve both body and mind while enjoying the Minuma Tambo area. Participants will start out from and finish at Saitama Shintoshin. This event is authorized by the Japan Marching League, Japan's premier walking organization.

Come enjoy Japan's longest walkable cherry-blossom corridor and the buds of early spring with the Saita-March!
