The Meiji Hokkaido-Tokachi Oval, also known as the Obihiro Forest Speed Skating Oval, is an indoor track for speed skating in the city of Obihiro on the island of Hokkaido in Japan. The hall was opened in September 2009 as the second indoor track in Japan, after M-Wave in Nagano.
The course measures 79 metres (259 ft) and is built on the same site as the old artificial track from 1986, No Mori Skating Centre.[1]
The venue is scheduled to host the speed skating competitions at the 2017 Asian Winter Games.[2]
