10/10 Great Hike!

John_W, May 2023

This was a great hike! My tour guide was Yasuko, and she was a really fun lady to talk to! She told me all about the mountain and the shrines and temples located there as well. The hike was not too hard, and most relatively in shape people should be able to do it. After the hike we went to an onsen, and it was a nice relaxing time. The onsen also had lunch available and she helped me order my food. I had a great time hiking, and would love to do it again if I am ever in Japan again!
