I was anxious about whether I could reach Jomon Sugi, but with breaks and various explanations along the way, I was able to enjoy the walk and take many photos. The long and challenging trolley path with similar scenery was tough, but the knowledgeable guide's stories were interesting, which kept me engaged. Thanks to the guidance, I learned a lot about not only Jomon Sugi but also other attractions of Yakushima.
I researched appropriate hiking attire and wore clothes that were easy to move in and breathable. Since I would be sweating and needed stamina, I was glad I did my research beforehand. The weather changed frequently, with rain coming and going, so the rented hiking boots, raincoat, and backpack with a cover were very helpful.
After arriving in Yakushima, both the person delivering the rental items and the guide provided detailed explanations over the phone about the schedule and what to bring, which allowed me to spend two days in Yakushima with peace of mind.
縄文杉までたどり着けるか不安でしたが、休憩を挟んだり、色々な説明をしたりして進んでくださり、写真を沢山撮ってくださったりして、楽しく歩ききることができました。似たような景色が続くトロッコ道がとても長く大変でしたが、知識豊富なガイドさんの話が面白く、飽きずに歩くことができました。案内していただいたことで、縄文杉だけで無く、その他の屋久島の魅力をたくさん知ることができたので良かったです。
服装は登山の服装を調べ、動きやすく通気性の良い服装で行きました。汗をかくのと、体力が必要なので、調べてから行って良かったです。天気がよく変わって雨も降ったり止んだりしていたので、レンタルした登山靴やレインコート、カバー付きのリュックが役に立ちました。
屋久島に着いてから、レンタル品を届けてくださる方もガイドの方も、日時や持ち物などの詳細を電話で丁寧に説明してくださったので、2日間安心して屋久島で過ごすことができました。

My first trip to Shiretoko! I joined the tour filled with anticipation of encountering nature and wildlife. On the day of the tour, it was rainy, but our guide, Ayano, was fantastic. With a kind and humorous storytelling style, she provided detailed explanations about nature and animals. Thanks to her, I was able to deeply feel the breath of nature, which I wouldn't have noticed without the tour, making it a truly memorable trip. There were also foreign visitors on the same tour, and it was clear they were enjoying the experience with the English explanations. I hope to visit again someday. Thank you for everything!
初めての知床旅行!大自然と動物に逢えることへの期待感一杯でツアーに参加しました。
当日は雨跡が残る中でのツアーとなりましたが、ガイドの綾野さんが最高で、ユーモアを交えた優しい語り口で、自然のこと、動物のことなどを詳しく説明していただきました。
お陰様で、ツアーでなければ気づかなかった自然の息遣いを大いに感じることができ、大変思い出に残る旅行となりました。
同じツアーで外国人の方もおられましたが、英語での説明を受け、楽しんでいる様子が伺えました。また、いつか再訪したいと思っています。お世話になりました!

On the day of the visit, heavy rain made the Shiratani Unsuikyo area inaccessible. Instead, we went to the Yayoi Sugi course. The guide had explained the change in plans due to the heavy rain in advance, so it was accepted without any issues. Yakushima is said to have "35 days of rain in a month," so avoiding rain might not be possible. We can't complain about the natural environment. The Yayoi Sugi course also offered a wonderful world of spirits with its walking paths, streams, and moss-covered forests. I was slightly limping from the trekking the day before, but the guide helped by walking slowly while explaining the scenery. Thank you very much.
当日は大雨で予定していた白谷雲水峡は通行禁止でした。
代わりに弥生杉コースになりました。
大雨の時の予定変更は、ガイドの方から事前に説明があったので問題なく受け入れられました。
屋久島は“1カ月で35日雨が降る”といわれているので雨は避けて通れないかもしれません。自然環境に文句は言えません。
弥生杉コースも遊歩道、渓流、苔むす森など素敵なもののけの世界でした。
前日のトレッキングで少々足を引きずっていましたが、ガイドさんが景色を説明しながらユックリと歩いて下さり助かりました。ありがとうございました。

I received two confirmation calls beforehand, which made me feel at ease for the day of participation.
It rained a little, but it wasn't enough to put on rain gear, which made me realize how the weather is in Yakushima.
I took the shuttle bus near the airport around 4:30, stopped by a bento shop along the way, and arrived at the trailhead around 5:20.
After eating my breakfast bento, I started the hike at 5:50. The bento was prepared individually from the hotel, the bento shop, or the supermarket.
There were three groups participating, and we had a total of seven people, including the guide, for the trekking.
I have a fear of heights, and the bridge without handrails was a challenge, but I was able to cross it easily by holding onto the guide's backpack. I didn't have to retire, and I'm grateful to the guide.
The guide's explanations were easy to understand, and the conversation was enjoyable. We also got to take many wonderful photos.
When we reached Jomon Sugi, all my fatigue disappeared, and I was moved. Everyone had such wonderful smiles.
I highly recommend doing the Jomon Sugi trekking with a guide for first-timers. I think it will be many times more enjoyable and moving.
事前確認の電話が2回あり、安心して当日参加を迎えられました。

I went at the end of August. Just as we were about to depart, we were informed that a bear had been spotted a few minutes earlier, so we couldn't go to the Five Lakes. The tour guide suggested either an alternative course, waiting until the bear left, or canceling. Since we had to return to Tokyo from Memanbetsu Airport that day, we chose the alternative course. Although we couldn't see the lakes, we explored the forest, saw trees scratched by bears, and reached the cliffs of the Okhotsk Sea, which was quite impressive. I recommend it if you're not fixated on seeing the lakes!
8月の終わりに行きました。さて出発というときに数十分前に熊が出没したとのことで5湖に行けなくなりました。そこでツアーガイドさんは代替コースか、熊がいなくなるまで待機するかキャンセルも有りと提案。我々は当日女満別空港から帰京しなければならなかったので代替コースを選択。5湖は見れなかったものの森を探検、熊の引っ掻いた木とか、オホーツク海の岸壁に出るなど、見応えがありました。湖にこだわらなければおすすめします!
Dear Loosey,
This is Ayano, your guide. Thank you for participating in the tour the other day.
Due to the appearance of brown bears, we were unable to visit the Shiretoko Five Lakes and had to take an alternative route, but I'm glad to hear you enjoyed it.

At the end of August, it was a time when we could explore without a guide, but I signed up for a small loop course because I wanted to hear various explanations. Our guide, Ayano, was very experienced and provided explanations in a calm tone. I learned a lot about animal tracks and rare plants that I wouldn't have noticed just by walking on my own. It was reassuring when we spotted a brown bear, and I felt that participating in the guided tour was definitely worth it.
There were a total of 8 people in 3 groups, and the content was enjoyable for everyone from elementary school students to adults. Since we walked through the forest, comfortable shoes and suitable trekking clothing are essential. Binoculars were provided for free, so it was fine not to bring my own.
8月末なのでガイドさんなしでも散策可能な時期でしたが、いろいろと説明を聞きたく小ループコースを申し込みました。
ガイドの綾野さんは大ベテラン、落ち着いた口調でさまざまな説明をしてくださいます。自分で歩いているだけでは気づかない動物の痕跡や珍しい植物などがよく分かりました。ヒグマを見かけた時にも安心ですし、ガイドツアーに参加する価値は大いにあると感じました。
3グループ総勢8人のツアーでしたが、小学生から大人もまで楽しめる内容でした。森の中を歩くので、歩きやすい靴とトレッキングに適した服装は必須です。双眼鏡は無償で貸していただけたので、持っていかなくても大丈夫でした。

There was a sighting of a brown bear, and the walking trail was closed. The Shiretoko Five Lakes walking tour was canceled. We received a notification the night before and were able to participate in an alternative plan for a primeval forest trekking tour.
We walked through the primeval forest, which we wouldn't have had the courage to enter on our own, with a guide. We saw claw marks from the brown bear, deer, woodpecker holes, and some rare mushrooms, which was a lot of fun. The guide's voice was very calm and easy to listen to. However, the way he spoke was amusing, and I couldn't help but chuckle at some of his stories, which made it very enjoyable.
While I felt a mix of relief and disappointment at not seeing a brown bear, I thoroughly enjoyed experiencing the nature of Shiretoko. Since this is feedback on the alternative tour, I hesitated to write it here, but I wanted to express my gratitude, so I decided to share it. Thank you very much.
ヒグマの目撃情報があり遊歩道が閉鎖。知床五湖ウォーキングツアーはキャンセルとなりました。前夜にご連絡をいただき、
急遽代替案の原生林トレッキングへ参加させていただきました。
自分たちでは入る勇気がでない原生林をガイドさんと一緒に歩きヒグマの爪痕をみたり、鹿を見たり、キツツキの穴の跡、珍しいきのこを見たりとても楽しめました。ガイドさんの声がとても落ち着いていて聞きやすいです。でも話す単語がおもしろくておもわずくすっとわらってしまう様なお話の仕方でとっても楽しめました。ヒグマを見ることはできず、ほっとした様な残念な様な気持ちですが、知床の自然を存分に味わえてとっても楽しかったです。

We made a reservation for a group of four in our 20s. None of us had any serious mountain climbing or trekking experience, but thanks to our guide, we had a very enjoyable and comfortable two days of climbing!
As beginners, we were greatly helped by having a guide who managed the pace and introduced the routes. The trekking routes themselves were easy to understand, but information like "It's tough for the next xx minutes, but it will be flat after that" and "The next restroom is xx minutes ahead" was extremely helpful. I definitely recommend participating in the tour for first-timers.
Additionally, our guide kept the atmosphere lively with quizzes and games during the tour, making the challenging trails enjoyable to walk. They introduced us to the history at various points and took many wonderful photos at the photo spots. Other guides also greeted us and interacted with us whenever we passed by, creating a very friendly atmosphere for trekking.
20代4人グループで予約させていただきました。全員本格的な登山・トレッキング経験はなかったのですが、ガイドさんのおかげで2日間とも、とても楽しく快適に登れました!
初心者なので、ペース配分やルート紹介をしてくださるガイドさんがいてくれて大変助かりました。トレッキングルート自体はわかりやすいのですが、「あとxx分大変ですが、そのあと平坦になります」や、「次のトイレはxx分先です」といった情報が大変助かりました。初めての方は絶対ツアーの参加をお勧めします。
また、ガイドさんがツアー中クイズやゲームで場を盛り上げてくださって、きつい登山道も楽しく歩けました。様々なポイントで歴史等を紹介してくださったり、フォトスポットでは素敵な写真をたくさん撮影いただけました。
他ガイドさんもすれ違う度に挨拶してくださったり、絡んでくださってとても和やかな雰囲気でトレッキングを楽しめました。

I went on a tour of the Shiretoko Five Lakes, but due to bear sightings, we switched to a primeval forest tour. This turned out to be the best experience! We pushed through grass that was up to our waists and entered the forest, and when we emerged into a wide-open field, the view was breathtaking! Cliffs, the sea, and blue skies with clouds. We visited three different cliffs.
Even the plants and landscapes that you usually pass by became really interesting after hearing detailed explanations from the professional guide. We encountered various animals, including foxes, deer, and even bears. There happened to be a bear nearby eating, which is usually scary, but with the professional guide there, I felt safe observing it.
The next day, I took a sightseeing boat, but since it was the same scenery I had seen up close, I honestly found it a bit lacking. If you go to Shiretoko, I highly recommend going on a tour with a professional guide.
知床五湖のツアーだったんですが、熊出没で原生林ツアーに変更へ。これが最高の体験でした!
腰まである草をかき分け森へ入り、景色が開けた野原に出たら、もうそこは絶景!絶壁と海と青空に雲。そんな絶壁を3箇所も回りました。
普段は通り過ぎてしまう植物や風景も、プロの詳しい説明をきいたら本当に面白い。いろんな動物にも出会えます。キツネ、鹿、そして熊にも。たまたま餌を食べている熊が近くにいて、普通は怖いですが、プロのガイドさんがいてくれたので安心して観察することができました。
次の日遊覧船に乗ったんですが、近くで見ていた景色だったので、正直物足りなかったくらい。
知床にいったら、プロのガイドさんとツアーが1番のおすすめです。

I have almost no mountain climbing experience and am not very active, so this course was quite tough for me.

登山経験ほぼなし、運動不足の私には、かなりきついコースでした。散歩感覚では行ってはいけないところだし、普段あまり運動しない方は事前に体力作りをすることをお勧めします。ただ、景色は最高でしたし、ガイドさんもとてもいい方でした。苔もとってもきれいで、来てよかったです。

I requested a private guide for this tour and was extremely satisfied! I was worried about walking a long distance, but the guide continuously shared various stories about Yakushima's history, geography, and flora and fauna while we walked. They were very articulate, making the long hiking trail feel shorter. The pace of walking and rest points were thoughtfully considered based on our condition, and of course, at the highlights, the guide provided thorough explanations and took plenty of photos, which made me very happy. Towards the end, we had some extra time, so being able to rest with our feet in the river became an unforgettable memory. There are many guided tours available, but with larger groups, it's hard to hear the stories while walking, and the pace tends to get disrupted. Therefore, even though the price is a bit higher, I’m really glad I chose this tour with a private guide, as it’s not a place you can visit many times in a lifetime.
こちらのツアーで専属ガイドでお願いしましたが大満足でした!長い距離を歩けるか不安でしたが、歩きながらもいろいろな屋久島の歴史や地理、動植物の話を終始してくださり、とても話上手だったので長い長い登山道も短く感じことができました。歩くペースや休憩のポイントなども私達の状態を見ながら無理なく考え、もちろん見どころポイントではしっかり説明していただき写真もたくさん撮っていただき大満足です。最後のほうでは時間に余裕があったので川に足をつけながら休憩ができたのも忘れられない思い出です。多くのガイドツアーがありますが人数が多いとやはり歩きながらの話は聞こえませんし、ペースも乱れがちになりますので、料金は多少高くとも一生に何度もこれる場所ではないのでこちらのツアーで専属ガイドでお願いして本当によかったです。
Thank you for participating in our tour.
I am very pleased to hear that you enjoyed the nature of Yakushima along with the guide's explanations.
Even when walking in the same place, the enjoyment can change significantly depending on how you spend your time and the experiences along the way, so I’m truly glad that our purpose was effectively communicated.
It's not a place you can visit often, but please do reach out if you come to Yakushima again.

My spouse and I participated together. Since there had been no rain for several days, the paths and boardwalks in the forest were dry, but caution is needed on the dirt paths where stones are exposed. There are also some ups and downs. The weather was clear, and we could see the entire Shiretoko mountain range beautifully. Our guide was kind and thorough, explaining the vegetation, bears, deer, birds, frogs, the history of the Shiretoko Five Lakes, and how the Shiretoko mountain range became a UNESCO World Heritage site. I also heard that a bear had been spotted the day before, but it was reassuring to have a guide who is experienced and knowledgeable about how to deal with bears. I was worried about the parking lot being crowded during the Obon holiday, but there were no issues. I was able to learn a lot about the nature of Shiretoko, its history of development, and the reasons for its World Heritage designation, which created wonderful memories. I was also grateful that we could take photos at the shooting points. I would like to visit Shiretoko again.
家内と2人で参加しました。数日前から降雨が無かったため森の中の道や木道は乾燥していましたが、土の歩道は石が露出しているため注意が必要です。アップダウンもあります。晴天で知床連山全体が良く見えました。ガイドさんは親切丁寧な方で植生や熊・鹿・鳥・蛙の説明や知床五湖が生まれた経緯、知床連山の説明、世界遺産になった経緯など多くの事をお話し下さいました。また前日は熊が出たそうですが経験豊富で熊との付き合い方を熟知しているガイドさん付きなので安心でした。お盆の最中で駐車場の混雑が心配でしたが問題ありませんでした。ガイドさんから知床の自然や開拓の歴史、世界遺産指定の経緯など色々なお話を伺う事ができて良い想い出ができました。撮影ポイントで写真を撮って頂けたのも有り難かったです。

The rental items were sufficient. I bought rain gear, but it was unnecessary. I couldn't keep up physically, and with one hour left, I made a brave decision to leave. I apologize for causing concern to the leader. Thank you very much.
レンタル品だけで充分でした。レインウェアを購入したけど不用です。ただ体力的について行けず、残り1時間で勇気ある徹底をしました、リーダーにご心配をおかけしました。ありがとうございました

This was my first time visiting Yakushima, and I heard that I couldn't miss Jomon Sugi, so I signed up for a trekking tour to see it. I have little mountain climbing experience and don't exercise much, so I was a bit anxious. On the day of the tour, the weather was good in the morning, but it started to rain in the afternoon, making the stones and wooden planks on the trail slippery. We took breaks at several points while climbing up and down. The guide took photos for us. The feeling of seeing the majestic Jomon Sugi at the summit is unforgettable.
I especially received a lot of energy from our guide, Mr. Nakaba. He walked lightly and sometimes sang songs, sharing stories about Yakushima as we walked. I wondered how he had so much energy. During lunch, he also made instant miso soup for us. Surrounded by the beautiful nature of the forest, with the sound of a stream nearby and gentle rain falling from the sky, it was an indescribably luxurious time.
Thank you, Mr. Nakaba. I hope to bring my son along for a Jomon Sugi trekking tour someday and introduce him to you! ^_^
屋久島は初めてで、行ったからには縄文杉は外せないと聞いたので、縄文杉のトレッキングツアーを申し込みました。登山経験は少なく、普段もあまり運動していないので、少々不安はありました。当日は午前、天候が良かったものの午後は雨が降ってきて、石とかトロコ道の木の板が滑りやすかったです。途中で何ヶ所休憩を取りながら登り降りしました。ガイドさんは写真も撮って頂きます。やっぱり山頂の縄文杉の神々しい姿を見た感動は忘れられません。
特にガイドさんの中馬さんにはすごく元気を頂きました、足取りが軽やかな上に時には歌を歌ったり、歩きながら屋久島に関するお話をしたり、なんであんなにパワーのある方だなと思いました。お弁当の時間に即席味噌汁も作って頂き、美しい大自然の森の中、そばに沢の水が流れていて、空からしとしと小雨が降り注いで、何とも言えない贅沢な時間でした。
中馬さんありがとうございました。いつか息子を連れて縄文杉トレッキングツアーに参加できたら会わせたいですね^_^

It was cloudy on the day of the tour, but I felt it was better than walking in the heat. The guide lent us insect repellent spray, but I think it's necessary to take measures against bugs. A short-sleeved shirt was fine, but I recommend long pants, socks, and sneakers. There were some people in the same tour wearing shorts and sports sandals, but they struggled with mosquitoes.
Unfortunately, we didn't encounter any wildlife, but we could see traces of them here and there. The guide was very kind and provided various explanations. They also took casual photos at the photo spots. The three hours flew by with the beautiful scenery and the guide's entertaining stories. It was a wonderful experience that allowed us to connect with the nature of Shiretoko, and it became a great memory.
当日は曇りでしたが、暑い中で歩くよりも良かった気がしました。ガイドさんが虫よけスプレーを貸してくださいますが、防虫対策は必要だと思います。上衣は半袖でも大丈夫でしたが、下衣は長ズボンで靴下、スニーカーがおすすめです。同じツアーの中で短パン&スポーツサンダルの方がいましたが蚊に苦労されてました。
残念ながら野生動物には会えませんでしたが、その痕跡はあちらこちらで見る事ができました。ガイドさんもとても親切で色々な説明をしてくださいます。写真スポットで気軽に写真も撮ってくれます。素敵な景色とガイドさんの楽しいお話であっという間の3時間でした。知床の自然に触れ合えた感が満喫できてとても良い思い出になりました。
Dear youcan, this is Ayano, your guide from Hoshino Jikan. Thank you for participating in the tour the other day. I'm glad to hear you enjoyed it. I also appreciate you sharing beautiful photos and your experience. Thank you for the high rating as well. Shiretoko shows various faces depending on the season, so I hope to see you again if the opportunity arises.

This was my first visit to Yakushima, and I had an incredibly rich experience. The guide I had was someone who, despite not having been in the field for long, possessed a wealth of knowledge and information. As a result, even though my visit to Yakushima was short, I was able to spend a very fulfilling time. I would definitely like to have a guide like this in the future.
今回、はじめての屋久島訪問でしたが、めちゃくちゃ濃密な体験が出来ました。と言うのは、お世話になった屋久島のガイドの方が、そんなに長い期間を経ていないにもかかわらず、本当に多くの知識と情報を会得された方でした。結果、短期間での屋久島訪問でしたが、大変充実した時間を過ごす事が出来ました〜。
これからも、このような方であればガイドを是非ともお世話になりたいと思います。
Thank you for participating in the tour this time.
I'm glad to hear that you enjoyed the tour!
Please let us know if there's anything we can assist you with when you visit Yakushima again! We look forward to seeing you.

I was aiming for Myojin Pond, so I was cutting it close with the round trip time. I would have liked to walk to Tokuzawa if possible, but it was just not feasible time-wise. I would have been happy with an extra hour of stay.
明神池を目指していたので、往復でギリギリの時間でした。
できれば、徳沢まで歩きたかったのですが、時間的にムリ。
滞在時間プラス1時間あれば嬉しかったです。
Thank you very much for participating in the tour. We also sincerely appreciate your valuable feedback despite your busy schedule. We will use it as a reference for future tour planning.
この度はツアーにご参加いただき誠にありがとうございます。
またご多用の中貴重なご意見いただきましたこと重ねてお礼申し上げます。

Since none of my friends, including myself, had much experience with trekking or climbing, we decided to book a tour. When we arrived at the site, we noticed many people without guides, but I’m glad we had one.
★ Highlights of the tour
- You can learn about the highlights without any prior preparation or being passive.
└ The well-maintained mountain paths made it easy to reach Jomon Sugi without getting lost. It was great to learn about the points of interest and trivia along the course besides just the goal of Jomon Sugi. We also received tips on how to take great photos. Since we were a relatively young group, we made some detours on the way back, but if you’re on your own, there wouldn’t be many options other than the designated route.
- The timing of breaks was well managed.
└ This was the biggest advantage for beginners like us. We could aim for Jomon Sugi with peace of mind.
- You can arrange for trekking shoes and backpacks as well.
└ There are several rental shops in Yakushima, but being able to arrange everything in advance is convenient and reassuring. I think many accommodations in Yakushima can provide lunch boxes, but it’s nice to have that as an option. (We ate the lunch boxes from our accommodation, so we didn’t choose that option.)
Our guide was friendly and great at chatting, which made the experience enjoyable. Although we didn’t opt for a private tour due to budget concerns, we created wonderful memories with the entire group we climbed with.
友人含めて全員運動習慣のあまりないトレッキング・登山未経験ということもあり、ツアーを予約しました。実際現地にいくとガイドさんをつけていない方もたくさんいらっしゃいましたが、つけて良かったと思っています。
★ツアーの良かったところ
・予習なし・受け身でも見どころなどを教えてもらえる
└基本的に整備された山道で迷わず縄文杉にたどり着けます。ただし、ゴールの縄文杉以外のコース上の見どころ・豆知識などを教えてもらえてよかったです。映える写真の取り方も教えてもらいました。比較的若者グループだったので帰りは寄り道もしましたが、個人だけだと決まったルートで帰る以外の選択肢はなかったです。
・休憩のタイミングなど見計らってもらえる
└素人にとってはこれが一番大きかったです。安心して縄文杉目指せました
・トレッキングシューズ、ザックなどもあわせて手配できる
└屋久島にはレンタルショップが複数ありますが、事前に合わせて手配できるのは楽だし安心感もあります。お弁当は屋久島の多くの宿で手配できると思いますが、オプションとして選べるのもいいですね。(私たちは宿のお弁当を食べたのでオプションではつけていません)
ガイドさんも気さくでおしゃべり上手で楽しかったです。お財布を気にして貸切ツアーにしませんでしたが、一緒に登ったグループ全体でいい思い出が作れました。

On the day of the tour, just before departure, there was a sighting of a brown bear, and access to the ground walkway was prohibited, leading to the cancellation of the Grand Loop Tour. In a hurry, we switched to a trekking tour in the mountains of Shiretoko, guided by Ayano. I was nervous about the possibility of encountering a bear, but I was able to see bear claw marks and remnants of their meals, which are usually not visible, and I learned a lot. We also got to see a fox up close, and although it was just under two hours, it was incredibly enjoyable. Ayano's explanations were very clear, and it became a wonderful memory.
当日は出発直前にヒグマの目撃があり、地上遊歩道の立ち入りが禁止になってしまい、大ループツアーは中止になりました。急遽、ガイドの綾野さんの案内で高架木道を回った後、知床の山の中トレッキングツアーへ変更。クマが出てこないかドキドキでしたが、熊の爪痕や食事の後など普段は見れないものを見て、たくさん学ぶことが出来ました。間近でキツネを見ることもでき、2時間弱でしたがすごく楽しかったです。綾野さんの説明はすごく解りやすく、素敵な思い出になりました。
Dear Chiko, this is Ayano from Hoshi no Jikan. Thank you for participating in the tour the other day. I’m glad to hear that you enjoyed it, even though Shiretoko Goko was closed due to the appearance of brown bears and we had to change the course. Thank you also for sharing your experience; I believe it will be a great reference for those planning their travels. I look forward to seeing you again.

The trekking to Jomon Sugi is filled with many highlights along the way, such as Wilson's Stump, the Great Cedar, and the Couple Cedar. There are also points where you can touch Yakusugi, allowing you to experience the grandeur of nature through sight, smell, and touch. The guide's explanations are very clear, and with descriptions at each point, you can enjoy a fun trekking experience without missing anything. Since this area receives a lot of rain, rain gear is essential. It's best to prepare sturdy rain gear for hiking or rent hiking equipment. The hiking trails were steeper than I expected, so having trekking shoes and hiking socks that suit you can help reduce fatigue.
縄文杉を目的地としたトレッキングですが、ウィルソン株や大王杉、夫婦杉など道中の見所が多いです。
屋久杉に触れることができるポイントもあり、自然の雄大さを視覚、嗅覚、接触で感じることができました。
ガイドさんの解説がとてもわかりやすく、ポイントごとに説明があるので見落としなく楽しいトレッキングができます。
雨が多い地域なので雨具は必須です。登山用のしっかりとした雨具を用意するか登山用具をレンタルしましょう。
道中の登山道は思ったより険しかったので自分に合ったトレッキングシューズと登山用靴下があると疲れにくいかなと思いました。

The one-way distance of 11 kilometers includes 8.5 kilometers of an easy-to-walk trolley path, while the remaining 2.5 kilometers is a challenging mountain trail with rocks and tree roots. However, personally, I found it less strenuous than I expected. Just be cautious as there are many slippery areas. The guide provides thorough instructions.
The items listed in the email sent beforehand included various suggestions, but it's best to minimize your luggage as much as possible. There are several water stations, so I think one bottle of water will suffice. However, since I went in the middle of summer, it's advisable to bring something for salt replenishment.
Along the way, the guide shared various insights, including stories about Yakusugi trees, the forest's plants and animals, and a terrifying accident that occurred in the past. The guide was very friendly, and I had a great time.
片道11キロの内8.5キロはトロッコ道で歩きやすく、2.5キロは岩と木の根の歩きづらい登山道でしたが、個人的には思っていたよりもつらくありませんでした。
ただ滑りやすいところが多いので注意が必要です。ガイドさんが丁寧に教えてくれます。
事前にメールで送られてきた持ち物には色々と書かれていましたができるだけ荷物は減らした方がいいです。給水所がいくつもあるので水分はペットボトル1本で足りると思います。ただ私が行ったのが真夏ということもありますが、塩分補給できるものは持って行った方がいいです。
道中ガイドさんにさまざまなことを教えていただきました。屋久杉のお話や森の植物や動物のお話、以前起こった恐ろしい事故のお話。とてもフレンドリーなガイドさんで楽しく過ごさせていただきました。
Thank you very much for participating in our tour. We are glad to hear that you had an enjoyable day.
If you have the opportunity, please do visit another mountain with us.
Thank you.
この度は当社のツアーにご参加頂き誠にありがとうございました。
楽しく一日をお過ごしいただけた様で何よりです。
また機会がございましたら、是非別の山にも訪れてください。
