This immersive journey contrasts Japan's cityscapes with its spiritual countryside and ancient pilgrimage traditions on the Kii Peninsula. Start in Osaka, the bustling business hub of modern-day Japan, and end in Kyoto, Japan's former ancient capital and the repository of its cultural heritage. Hike along the spectacular Nakahechi section of the UNESCO-listed Kumano Kodo, an age-old web of pilgrimage routes. Soak up stunning scenery, marvel at sacred shrines, rest in ryokan inns, dine on the freshest local ingredients, and end rewarding days of hiking by relaxing in natural hot springs.

Highlights:

Hike the mystical Kumano Kodo pilgrimage trail strewn with stunning sacred shrines
Experience charming traditional onsen baths and ryokan inns along the trail
Take in the historic landmarks and cultural highlights of Kyoto and Osaka

Important Trip Details:
Moderately paced hikes of up to seven miles a day on rustic trails, plus a day of extensive city walking and cultural touring, linked by scenic train rides. This is one of our more challenging level 3 trips due to some steep and continuous ascents, including long flights of large uneven steps that may be slippery.

Minimum Age: 16
