A special Halloween-themed olle trek will take place in Miyama City this October. Long distance olle trials have become increasingly popular in Kyushu over the last couple of years. Participants in this trek will be able to get their face painted and take a commemorative photo at the starting point. There will also be a chance to break for lunch and enjoy some delicious pumpkin soup. Or why not enter the Halloween costume contest? You could end up winning a prize! This event is a great way to take in Miyama’s beautiful scenery, pick-up souvenirs, and sample some local agricultural produce!
