Course DetailsAUTUMN RIDE 2024 features three challenging courses starting and ending at the Central Warehouse District in Niseko Town. You can enjoy a variety of gravel rides with views of Mt. Yotei, also known as Ezo Fuji, as you pass through the primeval forests of Hokkaido, the rustic forest roads that reflect human habitation, and along the clear waters of the Shiribetsu River.
During the harvest season for new rice and autumn vegetables, you can look forward to enjoying delicious Hokkaido treats at the aid stations, such as fresh rice balls, Rankoshi melons, and potatoes with butter. Ride, eat, and escape into the nature. NISEKO GRAVEL is a fan ride event that allows you to experience the natural beauty of the Niseko area with all your senses.
