◆Important Notes
*Exact pick-up time will be confirmed by the guide the day before.
*This is a private tour. Selecting "Private guide" from the options is required.
Arrive at Arakawa Trailhead → Start on the old rail path
The trail begins from the Arakawa Trailhead, which has separate flush toilets for men and women. After getting ready, the long trek starts along the old rail path.
In summer, the sun begins to rise around departure time.

*The route may be reversed, starting from Shiratani Unsuikyo.
Kosugidani Bridge → Kosugidani Village Ruins
A historical logging village that once housed about 540 residents in 1960.
Kusugawa Junction → Sandai Sugi (Three Generations Cedar)
A bio-toilet is available at Kusugawa Junction. About 10 minutes along the rail path from there stands Sandai Sugi, a rare Yakusugi cedar that has survived through three generations—true to its name. In winter, the sun begins to rise near the end of the rail path.
Nioh Sugi → Enter the Ohkabu Trail
Pass the mighty Nioh Sugi, resembling a guardian statue. The steep ascent begins here. Be sure to use the last toilet before continuing—no toilets for the next 5 hours (toilet booths available).
Okina Sugi (Elder Cedar) Ruins → Wilson Stump
After passing Okina Sugi, the second-largest cedar after Jomon Sugi, you’ll reach Wilson Stump. This massive hollow stump is large enough to step inside. A natural spring flows from below, and when you look up, you’ll see a heart-shaped opening above.
Daiō Sugi (Great King Cedar)
A massive 3,000-year-old tree standing 25 meters tall with a 16-meter girth.
Meoto Sugi (Married Couple Cedar)
Two trees joined around 10 meters above ground, resembling a couple holding hands.
Jomon Sugi
The largest and most famous cedar on Yakushima. Its powerful presence will leave a lasting impression.
Kusugawa Junction
After crossing Tsuji Pass, the final climb to Taikoiwa begins.
Tsuji Pass → Taikoiwa Rock
After crossing Tsuji Pass, the final climb to Taikoiwa begins. Take a short rest at the bench before tackling this steep section, suited for more experienced hikers. As you ascend, sunlight breaks through the trees, revealing a breathtaking panoramic view of Yakushima from the top.
Mossy Forest (Mononoke Forest)
The most magical section of the trail, with over 600 types of moss in a mystical atmosphere.
Nanahon Sugi → Kuguri Sugi → Trail Junction → Kusugawa Trail
Pass Nanahon Sugi, known for its seven straight branches growing from a single trunk. Continue past Kuguri Sugi and the trail junction before entering the Kusugawa Trail. In winter, sunset typically begins around this section.
Satsuki Suspension Brg. → Hiryuu Otoshi Falls → Iwai Rock → Shiratani Trailhead
Cross the Satsuki Suspension Bridge and pass by the cascading Hiryuu Otoshi Falls and the massive Iwai Rock. The finish point, Shiratani Trailhead, is just ahead. In summer, sunset begins shortly after arrival.
Around 18:30 Tour ends, Drop-off at your accommodation

This time, we participated in a greedy tour with seven people, taking over 10 hours in one day to visit Jomon Sugi, Taiko Rock, and Shiratani Unsuikyo, including breaks. The guide considered each person's pace, ensuring that no one was left behind, which made us feel secure participating.

I highly recommend this tour. 今回、縄文杉、太鼓岩、白谷雲水峡を休憩含め10時間以上かけて1日で回るという欲張りツアーに7人で参加しました。
ガイドさんが個々のペース配分を考慮しながら、1人も置いていくことなく引率されていて、安心して参加することができました。歩くのに気をつけるべき箇所や、急勾配が後どれくらい続くかなど、予め伝えてくれていたことも助かりました。縄文杉や様々な植物の豆知識をたくさん教えてくれただけでなく、面白い話も出していただき飽きずに楽しく歩き続けることができました。オススメのツアーです。

I participated in a one-day tour of Jomon Sugi and Shiratani Unsuikyo. It was a trekking course lasting a total of 12 hours, but we were blessed with good weather, and the guide's engaging talk encouraged us, allowing us to reach the summit safely while having fun.

It seems that courses covering both spots have been decreasing lately, and both the guide and participants thought it would be a physically demanding course.

It seems that courses covering both spots have been decreasing lately, and both the guide and participants thought it would be a physically demanding course. However, being able to visit two highlights in one day during a limited travel period was very valuable. Also, the view from Taiko Rock and the taste of the tonjiru we had at Jomon Sugi are unforgettable. Thank you very much! Next time, I will join when Tsugimura-san turns 80. Looking forward to it! 縄文杉➕白谷雲水峡　1日ツアーに参加しました。

I had always thought I should visit Yakushima at least once before turning 40, so I was glad to participate this time.

When I mentioned that we would be walking for about 11 hours, everyone around me was put off, so I ended up going alone. However, the people I walked with were all wonderful, and our guide kept us entertained with little anecdotes, quizzes, and conversations, making the walk enjoyable without any boredom.

We were able to see everything I wanted to in one day, including Jomon Sugi, Wilson's Stump, Shiratani Unsuikyo, and Taiko Rock, which felt like a great deal.

There were some parts where the footing was poor or slippery, which made me a bit nervous, but since I brought work gloves, I was able to hold onto things and keep a low stance, allowing me to complete the hike without injury.

Thank you for providing such a wonderful day! 屋久島ツアーは40歳になる前には一度行ってみなければと思っていたので今回参加させていただけて良かったです。

I participated in the greedy plan at the age of 55, and although I was quite anxious, I was able to complete the trek without feeling as tired as I expected. The guide's explanations were enjoyable and made the tracking experience feel less tiring. The scenery was breathtaking and allowed me to completely forget about my daily life.

In any case, it's a place that everyone should visit at least once. 欲張りプランに55歳で参加して、不安ばかりだったけど思ったより疲れずに完歩できました。ガイドさんの説明も楽しくて疲れを感じさせないトラッキングでした。景色も絶景ばかりで日常生活を完全に忘れさせてくれる旅になりました。ただ雨が少なくて場所によっては花粉が非常に飛んでいるようで周りの人もくしゃみや鼻をすする音がしていました。私も鼻水がきつかったです。とにかく一度は行ってみるべき場所です。

Dear Pinoko,

Thank you very much for participating in the trekking tour and for sharing your experience.

When you applied, I honestly worried about whether you would be able to complete the walk given your age, but I'm glad you were able to finish without retiring. On that day, I was guiding another group, but I noticed that other participants were also sneezing due to pollen allergies, so I was hoping for a little rain.

We sincerely look forward to your next visit to the island.

お申し込み頂いた時に正直年齢を見て最後まで歩き切れるか心配していましたが、リタイアせずに完歩出来て良かったですね。
あの日は私も別のお客様を案内していましたが、他の参加者も花粉症でくしゃみしながら歩いていたので、少しは雨が降ってくれればと思ってました。

Trekking to Taiko Rock and Jomon Sugi.

I participated in a course that takes you from Taiko Rock to Jomon Sugi in one day! I'm glad I was able to visit both spots. However, the guide's pace was very fast, and I struggled to keep up. I couldn't enjoy the scenery and ended up looking down the whole time. The guide's pace was so quick that even tying my shoelaces or stopping briefly to look at the view made me lose sight of the group.

The guide's pace was so quick that even tying my shoelaces or stopping briefly to look at the view made me lose sight of the group. There were many conversations about it being the fifth consecutive workday and wanting to catch the bus back at a certain time, which made it feel like everyone was just eager to get back quickly. I had imagined a trekking experience where I could enjoy nature, but it turned out to be a very exhausting trek, which was quite disappointing. 太鼓岩から縄文杉を1日で回るコースに参加しました！2つのスポットを回れてよかったです。しかし、ガイドさんのペースがとても早く、着いて行くのに必死でした。景色を堪能できず最後まで下ばかりを向いて終わってしまいました。ガイドさんのペースは靴紐を結んでいたり、少し止まって景色を見るだけでも見失ってしまうほど早かったです。始めの時点で今日で5連勤目だとか、帰りのバスは何時のには乗りたいといった会話が多く、自分が早く帰ることに必死でした。

It was a tough plan to visit Jomon Sugi and Shiratani Unsuikyo in one day, requiring a bit of stamina. However, we were blessed with an amazing guide, and we were able to reach our destination while having fun along the way. Everyone made it back safely without anyone missing, making it a wonderful summer memory.

The view from Taiko Rock was captivating and brought me to tears... It's a sight you definitely should see at least once! (Though it does depend on the weather.)1日で縄文杉と白谷雲水峡に行く、ちょっと体力のいる過酷な？プランでした。が、最高のガイドさんに恵まれ、登山中もワイワイと楽しく目的地に辿り着くことができ、誰一人欠けることもなく無事に下山もでき、最高の夏の思い出になりました。

I booked with rental equipment included, and the rental staff were very accommodating, allowing me to participate in the trekking with peace of mind, thank you!

Thanks to the favorable weather, my body definitely felt the long hours of walking up and down (I'm not someone who exercises regularly, so gradually, some parts of my body started to hurt), but it turned into an incredible experience that I could only have here! I believe that if you have the spirit to enjoy, it will become a wonderful memory!

Thank you for the fun memories of Yakushima! こちらのツアーに申し込んで良かったです！
ガイドの監督のおかげで素晴らしい体験が出来ました、ありがとうございます！

以前から行きたかった屋久島に行くことになり遠方で頻繁に来ることも出来ない&滞在時間も短い、けど縄文杉も見たいし白谷雲水峡へも行きたい、と思いこちらに参加しました。

トレッキングのガイドさんいた方がいいよな、ぐらいの気持ちだったのですが、
11.5時間＋の道のりガイドはもちろん、写真や動画やコミュニケーション等々、プロのガイドさんの素晴らしさを感じました！

レンタル付きで予約しましたが、レンタルの方も丁寧に対応下さり、安心してトレッキングに参加出来ました、ありがとうございます！

おかげさまで天候にも恵まれ、からだは長時間歩き登り下りしただけありますが(日頃運動をしっかりしている方では無いので、徐々に体のどこかは痛くなります)、
おかげさまで、ここでしか味わえない最高な経験になりました！楽しむ気持ちがあればとても良い思い出になると思います！

屋久島の楽しい思い出をありがとうございました！
