This hike is not super difficult, approximately 7km in total. But it is not a simple walk and does take some effort. We would not recommend it for people who have trouble walking or are not in a regular condition. We take regular stops and can do extra stops if needed.
As the ground can be slippery, you need to come wearing shoes with good grip.
There may be mosquitoes and bugs as the group will hike in the mountain, so we strongly recommend to wear long sleeve shirt and long pants.
The itinerary for this tour includes some locations that are not accessible by a wheelchair or stroller.
Summer in Japan is very hot and humid, so we recommend that you bring water and wear a hat to prevent heat stroke.
Please note that the hiking trail can become slippery and dangerous during heavy rain. If the weather conditions are severe on the day of the tour, we may change the route from the hidden hiking trail to the main sightseeing route through Fushimi Inari Taisha for safety reasons. Thank you for your understanding.
