Abstract
A regional revitalization project centered on high-altitude training has been attempted in mountainous areas but has not achieved the expected results. Since the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, internationalization has progressed, leading to an increase in the utilization of domestic high-altitude training facilities by international athletes. Further utilization is also anticipated at the Tokyo 2025 World Athletics Championships. However, it has been determined that inadequate facility maintenance and operational management remain significant challenges, preventing the long-term utilization of these facilities.Based on these findings, a program was developed for the high-altitude training camp site at Yunomaru Highlands in Tōmi City. This program focuses on four key aspects: maximizing inbound effects, ensuring the sustainability of regional revitalization projects, establishing an effective sports training platform, and setting appropriate value indicators. Through the implementation of this program, it was confirmed that systematically increasing visitor numbers, optimizing the use of internal resources for efficient financial management, and ensuring sustainable facility management and operations would be effective in achieving long-term value creation.
