Description

Set among the peaks of the Myogisan massif, hike among its hidden beauty as I also guide you in abseiling 50 meters high and soar through the mountain range.

The rugged rocks of the range have been sculpted into dramatic forms, offering stunning panoramas.

Beginning at the Happudaira Trail we enter the mountain. As we continue onwards we discover the rock formation of Meiwa (Female Rock). Here we practice abseiling before heading to Oiwa (Male Rock). After we continue following the Happudaira Trail, staying overnight at the Tounkan Hotel.

The second day begins with a spiritual presence as we trek to the Nakano-Take Shrine, famous for Japan’s largest golden statue (20m) of the God of Wealth. Continuing forward to Todoroki-Iwa and Hoshiana-dake, we will enjoy our second day of abseiling.

Our tour will end around 3pm at Matsuida Station of the Shinetsu Honsen Line.

Don’t worry if you have never hiked or abseiled before. This tour is suitable for both previous hikers and first timers. As long as you have a good level of fitness this trip is for you.
