GoNorth Japan | I conquered my fear of heights on Japan's steepest summit @GoNorthJapan | Uploaded September 2024 | Updated October 2024, 16 hours ago.
I started this hike at Kamikochi, going all the way to the Yarigatake Lodge on day one, and back on the following day. There are a lot of other trails, and most people spend a few nights in between. There's also the option of going across Daikiretto, the steepest (and potentially most dangerous) trail in Japan. I didn't feel ready for that just yet. Next time I may try the Daikiretto route.. there are so many great areas in this mountain range. It is crowded though, which made me appreciate the trails I usually hike up in Iwate and Akita.
I'm a full-time guide, mostly up in Tohoku (northeast Japan) but I also guide groups up Mt. Fuji in the pre and post season as well as lead normal tours in places like Kyoto, Nara, and Tokyo when contracted.
