Hiking Japan’s Sacred Trail: 3 Days on the Ancient Kumano Kodo

An ancient pilgrimage route connecting Kyoto to the grand shrines, the Kumano Kodo remains well-preserved to this day, allowing all of us to take a walk back through time. We set our sights on the Nakahechi route to experience the culturally-rich journey it has to offer, take in the beautiful sights, and top it all off at Nachi Falls. We hope you can use the information in the links below to embark on the hike for yourself! //COME SAY HI!
