The past five years have been the toughest both mentally and physically.
However, I experienced a lot of inspiration and deepened bonds with my friends.
If you're Japanese, I highly recommend climbing Mount Fuji and trekking in Yakushima!
Absolutely recommended! ^_^
ここ5年で一番精神的にも肉体的にもキツかった。。
ただ、たくさんの感動と仲間の絆が深まった。

I was picked up at Kyoto Station and requested a tour of Nara. They made it a flexible and free travel experience. Additionally, the driver-guide speaks English, so I always ask for them when I have foreign customers.

I participated with a friend. It was a clear day in late August, and the temperature was high. Besides us, there was only one young student couple around 20 years old, making it a small group.
We gathered before dawn and entered the mountains from Shiratani Unsuikyo, then after seeing Taiko Rock, we headed to the Jomon Sugi course, which required over 12 hours of hiking.
As a 30-year-old office worker who doesn't exercise much, it was quite tough, but I managed to keep up with the group and completed the hike. The limited time for the return bus made the descent particularly challenging as we had to move quickly. The next day, as expected, I was hit with severe muscle pain, which made the innkeeper laugh out loud.
Our guide was a man over 70, and it was impressive how smoothly he climbed. He was a bit quiet and didn't provide many explanations, but his experience was evident, and I felt secure following him.
There were moments when the rain intensified (which I believe is normal for Yakushima hiking), but overall the weather was good, and I had a great time. If I have the opportunity, I would like to try an overnight course next time.
友人と2人で参加しました。8月下旬のよく晴れた日で、気温も高かったです。我々の他には、20歳前後の若い学生カップルが1組いるのみで、少人数のグループでした。
朝は真っ暗なうちから集合し、白谷雲水峡から入山して、太鼓岩を見たら縄文杉コースへ、という流れで、12時間以上の登山が必要です。
30歳の特に運動もしていないオフィスワーカーにはなかなかきつかったですが、グループの足を引っ張ることもなく、何とか歩ききることができました。
帰りのバスの時間が限られているので、特に下山する時のペースが速かったのがきつかったです。翌日は予想通り激しい筋肉痛になって民宿のおっちゃんに爆笑されました。
ガイドさんは70歳超えの男性でしたが、スイスイと登っていくのがすごかったです。無口な方なのか、あまり多くの解説はありませんでしたが、ベテラン感がすごく、安心して着いていくことができました。
途中雨が強くなるなどしましたが(屋久島登山では普通のことと思いますが)、全体的に天気もよく、とても楽しめました。機会があれば今度は泊まりコースに挑戦してみたいです。
Dear EBISEN58,
Thank you very much for your post about your experience. This course can be quite tough if you're not used to physical activity, but it's great to hear that you managed to reach the finish line. Although you participated in the summer this time, both spring and autumn, as well as winter without heavy snow, are full of fun, so we sincerely look forward to your next visit to the island.

I participated in this tour on the day of heavy rain, May 18. Fortunately, we were able to reach Jomon Sugi, but on the way back, there were places where the road had collapsed due to rising water. While other hikers were turning back, our guide proceeded without hesitation through the waterfall-like path, leading us forward. By the time we returned to the hiking trail, the water had risen to knee level in some areas. Just when we thought we could relax after getting back to the trail and boarding the bus, we found ourselves blocked by a fallen tree, preventing the bus from moving forward. In that situation, our guide took the initiative to go outside and cut the fallen tree with a saw. When we had to spend the night on the bus, the guide went out in the heavy rain to find a way back and called for help. Throughout the return from Jomon Sugi, the guide supported not only us but everyone else, continuously moving without rest. Their decisiveness and ability to take action were remarkable. Thanks to them, I was able to follow along with peace of mind. If it weren't for our guide... I am truly filled with gratitude. Thank you very much. Next time, I want to take on the Shiratani Unsuikyo challenge again.
このツアーに参加させていただいたのは、5月18日の豪雨の日でした。
ラッキーなことに縄文杉までは行くことができましたが、帰りは増水により道が決壊している場所もありました。他の登山者が引き返してくる中ガイドさんは何の躊躇もなく滝のようになった道を突き進み先導してくれました。登山道まで戻ってくる頃には膝上まで水が上がってきているところもありました。登山道まで戻ってきてバスに乗り込んでホッとしたのもつかの間。倒れた大木で道を塞がれてしまいバスが前に進めない状況。そんな中ガイドさんは率先して外に出てくれ、倒れた大木をノコギリで切ってくれました。またバスの中で一夜を過ごすことになった時も、ガイドさんが豪雨の中外に出
てくれて帰れる道を探してくれたり、助けを呼びに行ってくれました。縄文杉の帰りから私たちだけではなく、他の皆のこともサポートしてくれ、休むことなくずっと動いてくれていました。決断力と行動力が素晴らしい方でした。おかげで安心してついていくことができました。ガイドさんがいなかったら…。本当に感謝の気持ちでいっぱいです。ありがとうございました。
次回は白谷雲水峡をリベンジしたいです。
Dear Yuu,
Thank you very much for your post about your experience, and I apologize for the delayed response.
On May 18, there was a once-in-50-years heavy rain that caused a landslide, resulting in an overnight stay on the bus, which must have been quite difficult. The news about that incident spread nationwide, and since then, the number of climbers on Yakushima has drastically decreased, but it is gradually recovering.
While it may have been a traumatic experience for both of you, the incident has led to stricter criteria for conducting tours, and we now offer tours that ensure customer safety.
We hope you will join us for the Shiratani Unsuikyo tour that you missed next time.

The weather was not on our side, and due to rain from the morning, we couldn't go to Shiratani Unsuikyo as planned... However, despite the bad weather, thanks to our tour guide's arrangements, we were able to see Jomon Sugi! On the way back, I was worried that the heavy rain might cause the river to flood, but it turned out to be quite an experience trekking in such downpours, and there were some interesting moments.
The warm miso soup made by our guide warmed up my chilled body from the rain!
Next time, I want to take on Shiratani Unsuikyo again!
天気に恵まれず、朝から雨のため、予定していた白谷雲水峡は行けず・・・
しかし、なんとか悪天候の中、ツアーガイドさんの計らいもあって縄文杉は見に行きました!
帰りはどしゃぶりで川も氾濫するんじゃないかと心配でしたが、なかなか体験できない、土砂降りの中のトレッキングで、面白いところもありました
ガイドさんが作ってくれたあったかいお味噌汁が、雨で冷えた体を温めてくれました!
今度は白谷雲水峡をまたリベンジして行きたいです!

I went to Yakushima for a 2-night, 3-day trip. Since I only had a full day for trekking, I chose a greedy course that allowed me to visit both Taiko Rock and Jomon Sugi. (laughs)
I participated with a friend, and the guide took photos for us at the photo spots, so we didn't need a selfie stick! Even as a beginner, I managed to reach the top. However, there was a huge difference in fatigue afterward between my friend, who exercises regularly, and me, who doesn't exercise at all. So, those who don't usually work out should be prepared before participating. My legs felt like sticks for about three days after the climb. (laughs)
Both Taiko Rock and Jomon Sugi offered breathtaking views. Since it rained on and off, a raincoat is essential. If you don't have trekking shoes, it's better to borrow some. The shoes I borrowed didn't let any water in, even when walking through some muddy areas!
2泊3日で屋久島へ行きました。トレッキング時間も丸1日しか取れなかったので、太鼓岩と縄文杉どちらも行ける欲張りコースを選びました。笑
友達と二人で参加したのですが、ガイドさんが写真スポットに到着すると写真を撮ってくださるのでセルカ棒いらずでした!
初心者の私でもなんとか登り切ることができました。ただ、普段運動している友達と全く運動していない私とでは終わった後の疲労感にとてつもなく差があったので、やはり普段から運動していない方は覚悟を持って参加した方がいいです。私は登った当日から3日くらいは足が棒のようになりました。笑
太鼓岩も縄文杉も絶景でした。
雨が降ったり止んだり繰り返すのでカッパは必須です。トレッキングシューズがない方は借りたほうがいいです。私が借りたシューズは多少のぬかるみを歩いても全く浸水しませんでした!

My stay this time was only for one day. I didn't have enough time to reach Jomon Sugi, so I enjoyed hiking to Shiratani Unsuikyo (Taiko Rock). The weather was clear with not a single cloud in the sky at the summit. It was unusually good weather for Yakushima, but it was fantastic.
今回の滞在は1日だけでした。縄文杉までは時間的に余裕がなかったので、白谷水雲峡(太鼓岩)までの登山を楽しみました。山頂に雲ひとつかからない快晴でした。屋久島らしからぬ好天でしたが、最高でした。

Il taxi si è presentato davanti al nostro alloggio perfettamente puntuale: abbiamo concordato l'itinerario e, dopo aver letto le condizioni di trasporto, siamo partiti.
Abbiamo apprezzato la guida spedita (ci ha fatto risparmiare parecchi minuti).
Per comunicare il taxista ha utilizzato un traduttore vocale portatile, che si è dimostrato affidabile.
Se si è in tanti (noi in 9) il prezzo è davvero conveniente, anche considerando parcheggi ed autostrade, pagati da noi di volta in volta.
Attività e compagnia sicuramente da consigliare!

It was exhausting, but it was really great! The view from Taiko Rock was absolutely stunning and the weather was perfect. The photos of the mossy forest are not from the brochure! Haha, the nature was incredible. Also, I was moved to see Deidara-bocchi on the Torokko path! However, I wondered if it depends on the guide. The guide mentioned that some people go slowly while others go fast.

We set off early in the morning for a challenging itinerary, and I approached it with determination. Thanks to the favorable weather and the lively stories from our guide, Mr. Taniyama, we were able to visit all the points of interest. As mentioned earlier, this course is by no means easy. However, you can undoubtedly experience the grandeur of nature and the emotions that cannot be conveyed through photos!
As for equipment, there were no issues as long as I brought what was indicated in the guide. I rented shoes, and they were comfortable enough for the long journey without causing blisters, so I think renting is sufficient for those who don't have their own. You can arrange for breakfast and lunch bento boxes through the accommodation. There were also places to refill water along the way, so as long as you prepare your health well, you should be fine on the day!
早朝出発で行程もなかなかの本コース、覚悟をもって臨みましたがお天気に恵まれたこと、ガイドの谷山さんの軽快なお話のおかげで全てのポイントを回ることができました。前述した通り、このコースは決して楽なものではありません。しかしながら、間違いなく写真では伝わらない自然の雄大さと感動を味わうことができます!
装備等は案内にある通りに持って行けば問題ありませんでした。私は靴をレンタルしましたが、長時間の行程でも履きやすく靴擦れもしなかったため、持っていない方はレンタルでも十分かと思います。朝昼のお弁当は、宿に頼んで取ってもらうことが可能です。水分は途中でなくなってしまっても水を汲める場所がありました。体調を万全に整えて、当日臨むことができれば大丈夫でしょう!

The walking pace was faster than I expected, and I didn't have time to put on my raincoat, so it was quite hard, and I thought I might get a muscle strain.

思っていたより歩くペースが速かったり、レインコートを着る時間もなかったりと、かなりハードで肉離れになるかと思いました。簡易トイレを大量に持っていきましたが、トイレに入る時間も限られていました。ただ、景色などはすごく良かったです。一生に一度は見たかったのでよかったです。

I went to Taiko Rock.
Since it was my first time trekking, it was quite challenging.
For those who are aware of their lack of exercise, it seems that bringing trekking poles makes it easier.
Many people at Shiratani Unsuikyo go without a guide, but I often found myself wondering where to walk, so I think beginners should definitely hire a guide for peace of mind. You can also learn a lot from their stories.
Since it was early in the morning, there were few people passing by, and I could walk leisurely. On the way down, I started to encounter many people, so I got the impression that a lot of people start around 9 AM. I'm glad I left early, as I was able to enjoy Taiko Rock all to myself.
The guide was dressed lightly in a T-shirt and shorts, but I bumped my legs against rocks quite a bit, so I think wearing long pants or tights would have been better. Yakushima is full of rocks, so it can be quite painful. Since I was in the mountains, I probably didn't need a hat. Just wearing a hat made me feel quite hot, and I ended up taking it off at the end.
太鼓岩まで行きました。
トレッキングは初めてなので、けっこう大変でした。
運動不足を自覚している人は、ストックを持って行くと楽だそうです。
白谷雲水狭はガイドをつけてない人も多くいますが
どこを歩いたらいいの?と思うことが度々あったので
初心者はガイドを付けた方が安心です。お話も色々聞けて勉強になります。
早朝だったので、すれ違う人も少なくゆったりと歩けました。
下山の時には、たくさんの人とすれ違うようになったので
9時頃に出発の人が多いのかなーという印象です。
朝早く出たので、太鼓岩が独り占めできてよかったです。
ガイドさんはTシャツ半ズボンという軽装でしたが、私は足をあっちこっちに
ぶつけたので、長ズボンかタイツでよかったとおもいます。
屋久島は岩だらけなので、結構いたいです。
山の中だったので、帽子はいらなかったかな。帽子被るだけでけっこう暑く感じて、最後は脱いでいました。

It was more enjoyable than I expected, and I had a fulfilling day blessed with good weather. I knew that fit individuals were participating in this course, so I was a bit nervous at the start. The initial pace was fast, and I worried about keeping up, but our guide managed the walking time and breaks well, allowing us to walk comfortably in the end.
We visited Shiratani Unsuikyo → Taiko Rock → Jomon Sugi in that order. Since we came to Yakushima with the goal of seeing Jomon Sugi, it was the perfect order for our group to see it last. Along the way, we received a lot of energy from the guide's stories, photo opportunities, and the power of nature, making it an exciting and thrilling 11-hour trek. The sense of accomplishment was incredible. I highly recommend this for anyone wanting to experience nature in a day. Thank you, guide Shinmura.
期待以上に楽しく、天気に恵まれ充実した一日でした。
このコースは健脚の方が参加しているとしり、初めはドキドキのスタートでした。
初めのペースが速く着いていけるかと途中心配もしましたが、ガイドさんが歩く時間、休憩と上手にとってもらい、結局は余裕をもって歩くことが出来ました。
今回は白谷雲水峡→太鼓岩→縄文杉の順で回りました。
縄文杉を目的に屋久島に来たので、最後に縄文杉は私たちグループにとっては最高の順番でした。
途中のガイドさんの話や、写真撮影、大自然のパワーをたくさんもらい、終始ウキウキ、ワクワクの11時間のトレッキングでした。達成感も半端ないです。1日で大自然を感じたい方、お勧めです。ガイドの新村さんありがとうございました。

I truly enjoyed the unique experiences that the tour offered over the two days, and I'm really glad I participated. While I think both places could be visited individually, the connections and encounters with others made it a wonderful experience that only a tour can provide.
Day 1: Jomon Sugi
With six tour members and our guide, it was not just about explanations; they also helped us bond as a group. The sense of unity and everyone's smiles at the finish line are unforgettable! I was delighted to have warm miso soup during lunch.
Day 2: Shiratani Unsuikyo
With four tour members and our guide, we had to return early due to the typhoon, but they adapted the schedule flexibly, which was truly impressive! Our guide not only led us but also acted as a photographer, capturing many wonderful photos and videos, which made the four of us girls very happy! We were able to enjoy the tour many times more thanks to our hospitable guide.
I am grateful for the wonderful encounters in Yakushima. I strongly recommend participation to anyone who is considering it. Thank you! ☺︎

My family (3 adults, 2 children) had an incredible time during this tour which was individualized for us based on our requests and preferences. Our guide Takashi was extremely knowledgeable, spoke excellent English and taught us so much about not only Mt. Fuji but Japan and Japanese culture. Additionally, Takashi’s broad international knowledge and understanding provided an added perspective and important context on Japan’s place globally today. Our driver Toshi was also excellent and entertaining and because of his understanding of weather patterns on the mountain, we made 2 critical stops along the way that allowed us to see the peak despite some poor weather conditions overall. Takashi took us to an incredible restaurant for lunch, a meal that all of us enjoyed and none of us will forget. An incredible trip overall which was made even better by the connection we made with our guide Takashi. On a personal note, I left my phone in the vehicle and Takashi & Toshi ensured that it was returned to me the same evening! It was much appreciated! I would highly recommend this private tour and ask for Takashi!
Thank you very much for your excellent review with such detailed description. It is very kind of you. Toshi and I are very pleased to know that we contributed to your family having a good time in Japan. It was our pleasure to have such a lovely family as you as our guest.

On the first and second days, the guides were different people. To conclude, the guide on the second day was very good. The pacing, the way of using our legs, and the explanations about the plants and moss were all very thorough, making it easy to climb. On the other hand, the guide on the first day was also very kind and a good person, but due to the requests of a younger person in our group, we descended at a considerably fast pace, which was quite challenging for me, being older. They would wait for me, but would start walking again before I could catch up, so I couldn't rest at all and had to keep walking. I wanted to take more photos, but I had no time at all. Still, I think that without the guide, I wouldn't have known the highlights and it would have just been a "go there" experience, so I believe it was good to join the tour after all.
一日目と二日目でガイドさんが違う人でした。結論からいうと二日目のガイドさんがとてもよかったです。ペース配分、足の使い方、植物や苔の説明など非常に丁寧で、つらくなく登れました。一方、一日目のガイドさんも大変親切な方でしたし、良い方でしたが、一緒に登った若い人の要望で相当早いペースで降り、年齢的にかなり上のわたしには、ついていくのが大変でした。待ってはくれるのですが、追いつく前に歩き出すので、遅れる私はまったく休めず歩きどおしでした。もっと写真を撮りたかったのに、全然余裕がありませんでした。それでも、ガイドなしでは見どころもわからずに「行くだけ」になったと思うので、やはりツアーでよかったと思います。

Despite the heavy rain forecast due to the typhoon, I came to Yakushima to meet the kodama (tree spirits) of the Mononoke Forest. The moss, wet from the rain, sparkled beautifully and was truly wonderful! The guide brought a kodama doll, and it felt as if the real ones were there. I felt as if my heart was cleansed, and I left with a refreshed spirit. If you get the chance, I definitely recommend visiting!
台風による大雨予報の中、もののけの森のこだま(木霊)に逢いたくて、屋久島にやって来ました。
雨に濡れた「苔」は、キラキラ輝いて、とても素敵でした❣️
ガイドさんがこだま(木霊)の人形を持って来てくれたのですが、本物がいるみたいでした
なんだか、心が洗われたように、スッキリした気持ちになりました。
是非、チャンスがあったら、訪れてみて欲しいですね。

My first visit to Yakushima was for trekking and diving. I heard that it was the setting for "Princess Mononoke," which is one of my favorite Studio Ghibli films, so I decided to go.
I chose the moss-covered forest half-day course. The staff at the accommodation mentioned that we would arrive quickly, but as a trekking beginner, I thought it might be better to save Jomon Sugi for another time.
On the day of the trek, I received a call from the person in charge. I was excited and nervous since it was my first time, but the guide was wonderful. We talked about the course and shared casual conversations, creating a homely atmosphere, so I quickly felt comfortable. The guide was in his 70s, but he was a veteran who climbed swiftly! He provided detailed guidance, and I was glad I could keep up with him.
The reserved course was truly amazing, and I felt like I could climb it over and over again. There were huge cedar trees that rivaled Jomon Sugi, and the sound of the river was very soothing. The course was full of highlights until we reached the moss-covered forest, and I thoroughly enjoyed it! Thank you.
On the last day, I had a trekking reservation, and I wanted to make it to the ferry on time, so I asked to go to the souvenir center at a certain time. They kindly accommodated my request, which was a great help. Thank you. However, it might have been because I was the only one that day.
初めての屋久島で、目的はトレッキングとダイビングでした。
ジブリが大好きでもの○け姫でも舞台とされてるとのことで行ってみました。
コースは苔むす森、半日コース
宿のかた曰く直ぐについてしまいます、
なんて言われましたが、トレッキング初心者なので縄文杉はまたの機会でいいかもと思ってました。
当日前に担当の方より連絡があります。
初めてでワクワクドキドキ緊張してましたが、
ガイドの方が大変良くて、コースの話や世間話しをして頂きアットホームな雰囲気だったので直ぐに仲良くなりました。
高齢で70代過ぎの方でしたが、ベテランの方でサクサク登られます!w
さらに細かなガイドをして頂けます。
ガイドさんになんとか付いて行けて良かった…
予約のコースは本当に最高で何度でも登りたいって思えます。縄文杉に負けないくらい大きな杉があり、川のせせらぎが心地良かったです。
苔むす森に辿りつくまで見所満載のコースで満喫出来ました!!
ありがとうございます。
最終日にトレッキングを予約していたので、フェリー時間に間に合うように何時にはお土産センターへ行きたいなどとワガママを聞いて頂き、大変助かりました。ありがとうございます。
ただ、その日は私だけだったからかも知れません。

I apologize for any inconvenience caused to the guide, but they were very attentive and kind! Thank you so much!!! The journey was tough, but with encouragement like "we'll take a break in about ○ minutes" and stories about previous trekkers, I was able to push through until the end!
At times, when the rain was heavy and it got cold, I was warmed up with delicious miso soup! The rainforests of Yakushima are incredibly beautiful, and I was truly moved when the sun peeked out for a moment! I want to go again! I hope to count on your support then!
ガイドさんには、いろいろご迷惑おかけしましたが、とてもとても丁寧に対応していただきました!ありがとうございました!!!
道のりはハードでしたが、あと○分で休憩だよとか、以前にこういう人がいてね~とか、いろんな声をかけていただいて、最後までトレッキングを頑張れました!
時折、雨が激しく降り、寒くなったときは、暖かいお味噌汁をいただいて、暖まれました!
屋久島の雨の森はとても綺麗で、太陽が少し見えたときには、とても感動しました!
また行きたいです!そのときは、よろしくお願いいたします!

The driver was very kind, friendly, knowledgeable and spoke perfect English. Surprisingly he also spoke Spanish as well, which was a fun surprise for the parents, as the driver was happy to practice his Spanish. He was able to drive us to some nice places, as we even got to eat at a nice restaurant over the river that we wanted to enjoy. The van was very spacious, clean and comfortable as well.
Dear Heather-san, Thank you so much for using our limo service.

Dear Haruki,
Thank you very much for your post about your experience. I believe it must have been quite challenging since three out of the four participants were beginners in climbing, but I hope it has become a wonderful memory for you all.
Next time, please come to Taiko Rock in Shiratani Unsuikyo when the mountain cherry blossoms are in full bloom.

返信遅くなりましたが、体験談への投稿、誠にありがとうございます。
4名中、3名は登山初心者ということもあり大変だったと思いますが、きっと良い思い出になったと思っています。
次回は山桜が満開になった白谷雲水峡の太鼓岩にお越しください。
