Learn on your Adventure

As you progress through your adventure, you’ll discover additional destinations along the way. 

Every new destination provides an opportunity to immerse yourself in the virtual experience while learning about the local landmarks, history, and culture of Mount Fuji.

How It Works

The Conqueror Virtual Challenge is a paid programme, much like registering for a local community race. You’ll need to pay a programme price to gain access to the system to enter your distance into the challenge database.

Each time you do a distance-based exercise such as running, walking, cycling, swimming, etc., your virtual map of Mount Fuji advances. Try it alone, or join The Conqueror private community to form a group and encourage one another to stay motivated!

Track your Progress

You’ll advance along the virtual route and see your progress updating in real-time every time you walk, run or hike. You can track all your miles (km’s) directly into The Conqueror Virtual Challenges mobile iOS and Android apps.

Enter exercise activity into the app either by manually entering distance or by syncing your activities from your favourite fitness tracker or smartwatch.

Cross the finish line

And receive a gorgeous Mount Fuji finisher’s medal.

What you’ll get

Unlock Virtual Postcards

You’ll receive custom virtual postcards when you reach certain milestones along the way, up to 6 postcards. Each postcard contains fun facts about Mount Fuji. 

Plant Real Trees as You Advance

For every 20% of the challenge, The Conqueror Virtual Challenges will donate towards the planting of a tree. There’s no extra work or cost for you — just make sure you keep exercising!

By the end of the challenge, you’ll have planted 5 trees. Imagine what can be achieved as a community so make sure to get your friends and family involved. So far The Conqueror Virtual Challenges has planted more than 450,000 trees since August 2020.
