About this event

Two walking routes, measuring 5 and 10 kilometers, follow the Edogawa riverbank during Walking Festa Edogawa 2026. Organized by the Edogawa Walking Association, the annual event brings together recreational walkers for an outdoor gathering designed to encourage everyday physical activity. Participants start and finish at Mizube no Sports Garden, where additional activities include open-air yoga, guided stretching, health and nutrition advice, and a performance by the BLUE WINGS cheerleading group. A stamp rally is limited to the first 100 participants, while a prize drawing gives walkers another reason to explore the festival booths. Food trucks, stalls and a regional products market add a local festival atmosphere to the gathering. The event also features information from healthcare organizations and registered dietitians.

The two riverbank routes allow participants to choose between a shorter and longer walk, while the absence of advance registration makes participation straightforward.

The festival is not limited to walking. Its main gathering area includes healthcare information, nutrition consultations, exercise guidance and regional food stalls.
