About this activity

This is an easy and relaxing tour in the ancient Japanese cedar forest.

Even if you do not wish to try trekking at all, you can still enjoy an easy walk in the ancient forest in this course. How about a cup of tea or coffee by the creek?

The short course lasts one to two hours and is very safe. So safe that even when it rains, you can continue your walk in the rain as long as you have an umbrella. Please be sure to prepare some rain gear.

After your trekking experience, you will be taken on a sightseeing tour around the area. If you wish to spend more time in the forest, the course includes a wild trail with steeper and tougher hiking. The longer you walk, the deeper you will get into the forest, and the deeper you get into the forest, the more you will see.
