Exploring the routes through historic shrines and temples offers a rare and precious opportunity to touch the essence of Japanese spiritual culture.

The seasonal scenery is a major draw, especially the breathtaking views of fresh spring greenery and colorful autumn leaves.
Hiking while observing historical ruins provides a much deeper, more enriching experience than a standard physical workout.
