I hiked from Kitayamazaki ( goo.gl/maps/qCR8m4FKeb1MgSxh6 ) to the Ragaso Hotel ( goo.gl/maps/NRHqhq1u5KF1NwT17 ), which I think has some of the best landscape in the entire 1,000km Michinoku Coastal Trail. I also love the area to the north of the Unosu Cliffs ( goo.gl/maps/G9miR47PwJmktQnB6 ) but to hike that far down in one day I'd need to start early and have a nice long June day, not these crazy short winter ones.
The video I mentioned where you can take a boat along this route is here: youtu.be/FDj5VhHN5M4
I can be your guide hiking along the coast, or just taking you to a few great spots by car (or anywhere else in the region).
