[mitsumi]

English | 2025 | ISBN: 1786312425 | True EPUB | 240 pages | 42.94 MB

A guidebook to walking Japan's UNESCO-listed Kumano Kodo pilgrimage trails, covering the Nakahechi, Choishimichi/Koyasan and Kohechi routes, as well as a Hongu loop, highlights of the Iseji route and shorter walks around Kumano Sanzan shrines. Since many of the trails involve steep ascents and descents, a moderate level of fitness is required.
Routes vary from 5 to 64km (3-40 miles) and crisscross the mountainous Kii Peninsula, south of Osaka. Some can be enjoyed in a single day or half-day, whereas the Nakahechi and Kohechi routes lend themselves to a 4-day mini-trek. Spring and late autumn are best for the trails, although the Nakahechi can be walked year-round.
1:50,000 mapping plus larger-scale maps for key towns and the main shrines
Detailed information on public transport, accommodation and refreshments
Advice on planning and preparation
Fascinating insights into Japanese culture and spirituality
