Mt Koya Walking Tour from Osaka

There are 3 plans you can choose.

• 1-day walking tour of the downtown, Koyasan. An experienced guide with a strong attachment to Koyosan will orient you and show you some of the unique places, and sites.
• 2-day itinerary for average-paced travelers which takes you through Koyasan, the center of Shingon Buddhism and Stay at Shukubo. Parts of the route, namely the Women Pilgrims Course, follow a nature trail, and proper walking shoes are recommended, especially during or after wet weather
• Mt.Koya & Kumanokodo Walking 3-Day tour :The Kumano Kodo Trail and the Camino de Santiago de Compostela are both pilgrimage routes with UNESCO World Heritage status. If you’re looking to do a trek in Japan, you’re probably considering either the Kumano Kodo, which is in Wakayama (southern Kansai), or the Nakasendo, which connects Tokyo and Kyoto via the mountains of Central Honshu. Since the Nakasendo has become popular in recent years, we find that the Kumano Kodo gives you a more authentic and less touristy experience of the Japanese countryside. The Kumano Kodo is actually a network of several ancient pilgrimage routes that converge on Kumano Hongu Taisha Shrine, a powerful Shinto shrine in the mountainous heart of Wakayama Prefecture. Hongu Taisha is the most important of three famous shrines known as the Kumano Sanzan. The other two, Kumano Nachi Taisha and Kumano Hayatama Taisha, are both near the eastern coast of Wakayama and are connected to Hongu Taisha by well-traveled pilgrimage routes.
