There is no groomed surface.
No route, no signs, no guidance.
Only earth, stream and slope.
Where and how you drive is yours to decide.
Here, there is no set road.
The map you brought, you leave here.
Cross the stream, press the leaves, thread the trees.
One vehicle, one day.
Any year. First generation or current.
Jimny Sierra, and the five-door Jimny Nomad.
One reason to keep it to one model:
so Jimny drivers share the same ground with Jimny drivers.
A light body. A ladder frame. Low-range four-wheel drive. A structure built for this car, used on land built for this car.
Your Jimny, filmed as it runs.
The moment it crosses the stream. The body climbing the slope. The panels under dappled light.
No people are photographed. Only the car, the earth, and the light.
What we capture is handed over as data — photos and video.
Not for social media, but as a record of the day.
First, once. See the land for yourself.
A day of driving. Fire and bath, free to use.
Come as often as you like, and drive as long as you like.
Filming of your drive (the car only). Opt in when you apply.
Choose by the hours you drive and how often you come. Exact terms and availability are shared on enquiry.
We plan to hold meet-ups and gatherings regularly.
No need to be hardcore. Beginners welcome.
Dates are announced through our official channels.
Nature and tools carry danger.
Driving, bathing, sauna and staying — all by your own judgement and responsibility.
VehicleDamage, rollover, a wheel off the edge. You protect your own car. That is the premise.
InsuranceVehicle insurance generally does not cover driving in a place like this. Please check your policy in advance.
Fire & bathBurns, overheating, carbon monoxide. When fire is used, ventilate and keep water at hand. We may suspend use by weather or wind.
EligibilityA valid driving licence is required. No drink-driving, anywhere. Minors need a guardian’s consent to take part or ride along.
We bear no responsibility except in cases of intent or gross negligence. Before use, we ask for a risk briefing and your signature on a waiver.
“Yuuka” is welling water and a wood fire.
“Nobi” is the fire that burns the field and runs across it.
Only fire ties the two together.
YUUKA chose not to appear on any map.
NOBI, too, withholds its exact location.
But there is no screening and no invitation. All you need to bring is a licence, and your own responsibility.
This is the window for driving applications and enquiries.
Or write directly to info@yu-ka.space. The meeting point is shared after confirmation.
No. NOBI is Jimny-only. Jimny Sierra and the five-door Jimny Nomad are included, and any model year is fine.
Yes. There is no set course, so you take the slopes and the stream at your own pace. Beginners are welcome at the meet-ups too.
Use the application form near the bottom of this page. No screening and no invitation are needed. Once the date is confirmed, we share the meeting point.
