Mountain trails exist because someone continues to protect them. Behind those trails walked by many, there are people involved in daily maintenance and upkeep.
Domestic outdoor manufacturer finetrack Inc. (Headquarters: Kobe City, Hyogo Prefecture; Representative: Yotaro Kanayama), whose philosophy is "Player = Creator," launched the "finetrack x YAMAP Custom Dry Layer Basic" on Thursday, April 2, 2026. A portion of the sales will be donated to mountain trail maintenance organizations.
Now in its third year, we will continue our initiative to [support those who protect mountain trails] through the sale of this donation-based product.
What We Can Do to Protect Mountain Trails Mountain trails are continuously protected by the hands of many. It is because there are people dedicated to daily maintenance that many others can enjoy mountain climbing with peace of mind.
