I was a bit anxious about the 10-hour hike for the first time, but our guide, Yokota, organized everything so well that we were able to hike smoothly. I learned a lot about the history as well. The Yakusugi trees were, of course, amazing, but I felt a sense of awe from the vast nature along the way that I had never experienced before. I was overwhelmed by the nature that I can't see in Osaka, and I felt a bit sad that such nature no longer exists there. I hope we can create a world where nature is not destroyed and humans can share more with it.
今回はじめての10時間の登山不安もありましたがガイドの横田さんがとても段取りよく連れて行ってくださりスムーズに登山することができました。歴史もいろいろ教えていただき勉強になりました。屋久杉ももちろん素晴らしかったですがそこに行き着くまでの道中に広がる大自然に今まで感じたことがなかったような感動を覚えました。大阪では見えない自然に圧倒されたとともに、もう大阪にはこのような自然がない事を少し悲しく思いました。自然破壊が進まず人間が自然ともっと共有する世の中になりますように。

This was my second time visiting Jomon Sugi and Shiratani Unsuikyo. I was blessed with great weather and had an amazing hike, but the guide was quite cold towards beginners and showed no consideration at all. A few years ago, I participated in a tour that included options for Jomon Sugi and Shiratani Unsuikyo, but this time, it was a tour without those options, so I made my own arrangements.
I don't remember which guide I had last time, but they provided very thorough explanations and were kind and considerate towards beginners. On the way back from Jomon Sugi this time, it seemed the guide wanted to catch the 4 PM bus, so they walked very quickly, and I struggled to keep up. In the end, we missed the 4 PM bus.
During the Shiratani Unsuikyo portion, the guide was complaining about people being late. The driving when we were taken back from the trailhead to our accommodation was also rough; the guide was using their smartphone on the mountain roads and veering into oncoming traffic on curves.
I have participated in guided trekking tours a dozen times, but this was the first time I encountered such an inconsiderate guide. If I go to Yakushima again, I would like to request a different guide.
2回目の縄文杉と白谷雲水峡でした。天気に恵まれ最高の登山ができましたが
ガイドさんは、初心者に冷たく気配りなどは全くありませんでした。
数年前に行ったときは縄文杉、白谷雲水峡のオプションがついているツアーでしたが、今回はオプションがついていないツアーでしたのでこちらで申込みをさせていただきました。
前回はどちらのガイドさんかわかりませんが、とても丁寧な説明で初心者に親切で気配りのできる方でした。
今回縄文杉の帰り道、ガイドさんが16時のバスに乗りたかったのでしょう、とても早歩きで小走りでついていくのがやっとでした。
結局16時のバスには間に合いませんでした。
白谷雲水峡のときも遅れている人がいると、ブツブツ文句を言っていました。
登山口から宿泊先まで送ってもらうときの運転も荒く、山道でスマホを触ったり、カーブは対向車線にはみ出したりしていました。
今まで十数回ガイド付きのトレッキングツアーに参加しましたが、こんなに思いやりのないガイドさんは初めてでした。
また屋久島に行くことになれば、今回のガイドさん以外にお願いしたいです。

You can take a bus to circle the island. The bus also makes it easy to access the Western Forest Road, so I think it's a good option for those who are anxious about driving. It was great to see many Japanese macaques and sika deer as well.

An early morning departure, long hours of walking, and tough trekking are challenging, but the excitement when you finally see the sights is unparalleled. The ancient cedar trees are magnificent, but the scale is truly different.
Since my family is in their 60s, we have been training by climbing the Kirishima mountain range several times over the past three months, and for the past month, we have been hiking a small mountain about 10 km away two to three times a week.
早朝出発、長時間歩行と厳しいトレッキングではありますが、その分目にした時の感激はひとしおです。紀元杉も素晴らしいですが、やはり規模が違います。
我家は60代なので3ヶ月前から霧島連山を何度か登ったり、1ヶ月前からは週に2、3回は10Km程度ちかくの小山に登ってトレーニングしました。

My first time in Yakushima... Trekking to Jomon Sugi is tough for elderly people who are not used to hiking. I arrived early in the morning by ferry from Kagoshima. This tour makes full use of the entire day for sightseeing in Yakushima. In the morning, they picked us up and we went around the island, enjoying flying fish for lunch. In the afternoon, we headed towards Yakusugi Land. While you can take the same route by rental car, having a guide's explanations really helps you understand Yakushima better. If you're participating alone, it might feel a bit pricey, so I recommend going with someone else. We had valuable experiences on the one-day course, such as walking through Yakusugi Land and encountering Yakuzaru monkeys and deer along the Seibu Forest Road.
初めての屋久島… 縄文杉杉へのトレッキングは登山に慣れない高齢者には厳しいです。鹿児島からフェリーで早朝着。このツアーは丸々1日を有効に使って屋久島観光をします。朝、お迎えに来てくれて島一周をして飛び魚のランチ。午後から屋久杉ランド方面に登っていきました。レンタカーでも同じコースは行けますが、やはりガイドさんの説明があれば屋久島をより理解できます。1人参加だと割高?の気もしますので2人参加を勧めます。屋久島ランドでの屋久杉の中の散策したり、西部林道を歩きヤクザル、鹿との遭遇など1日コースで貴重な体験をしました。

The biggest challenge was descending 22 km in 10 hours by 5 PM! I tried to book with several tour companies, but due to being 74 years old, I repeatedly canceled because of comments like "the guide might have to wait for you at some point" and suggestions for custom tours. However, during my final search, I found a "chartered bus from the hotel to the trailhead," and they kindly listened to my concerns about my age, allowing me to participate. (I secretly thought that since it was a chartered bus, it might be flexible if my descent was a bit delayed...) On March 17, at 4:20 AM, a large shuttle bus arrived at the bus stop in front of the hotel. (I realized that with this large bus, my personal requests would be impossible! I just have to do my best!) We arrived at the Arakawa trailhead in about an hour. The guide introduced the tour members, but it was dark, so I couldn't see well. After turning on my flashlight and having breakfast and warm-up exercises, we departed around 6 AM. It was still dimly lit before dawn. I followed the guide along the trolley path with my flashlight on. Our guide, Shimazu, was friendly and gentle. About 30 minutes in, dawn began to break, and I desperately walked while gazing at the misty scenery of Yakushima, including the iron bridge and Aiko Mountain. The key to walking, I learned, is to walk like a ghost, relaxed and without exerting too much effort.
We took our first break by the side of the path after passing Kosugidani lodge. Here, I witnessed a "mysterious walking style" that allowed someone to complete 100 famous mountains in 48 days. A young man in his 30s, who was friendly with the guide, joined us. Fortunately, he offered to carry my luggage. I became lighter and was able to walk much faster by mimicking the relaxed walking style I had learned. The trolley path to the entrance of the Okubo trail, about 8.5 km, felt quite long. After a restroom break, we entered the steep ascent. Unlike the trolley path, it was rugged. However, I was moved by the ancient and oddly shaped Yakusugi trees we encountered one after another. Trekking while listening to explanations and experiences was enjoyable. The highlight was the Wilson stump, a heart shape glowing in light green towards the sky. We all took a commemorative photo with the heart shape. We walked slowly without resting during the steep ascents and descents, balancing on one foot while walking. I was taught repeatedly how to walk without putting weight below my pelvis. Finally, I faced the Jomon Sugi, my long-held dream. I was able to take my time and enjoy the view from two or three observation points, leaving me extremely satisfied. This experience became a precious lifelong memory, blessed with the kindness and encouragement of our guide Shimazu, the young man who carried my luggage until the end, good weather, and various strokes of luck. Thanks to Shimazu's walking techniques, we enjoyed river play and were able to descend together as a tour group around 4:30 PM. Through our shared desire to "meet the Jomon Sugi," I felt deeply the beauty of human connections, as we encouraged each other with the same goal. It was a truly wonderful experience. Thank you very much.
最大のネックは10時間22kmを5時までに下山!数件のツアー会社の予約を試みたが74歳の高齢のため「ガイドさんに途中で待ってもらうこともあるかも」等のダメ押しやカスタマーツアーガイドの提案等でキャンセルを繰り返し諦めていた縄文杉ツアー。最終の検索で「ホテルから登山口までバス貸し切り」を見つけ、高齢であること他こちらの希望を快く聞いて頂き参加に至る。(内心バス貸し切りのため下山が少し遅れても融通が利くかも・・・)という甘い思いもあったのだが・・・3月17日当日4時20分ホテル前のバス通りに大型送迎バスが来た。(この大型バスでは個人の希望は無理だろう!頑張るのみだ!)と気づく。荒川登山口に1時間位で到着。ガイドさんからツアーメンバーの紹介があったが暗くてよく分からない。懐中電灯をつけて朝食、準備体操後6時頃出発。まだ夜が明けやらぬ薄暗さ。懐中電灯をつけてトロッコ道をガイドさんの後ろについて歩く。気さくで温和な優しい島津ガイドさん。30分位で夜が明け始め朝もやの屋久島の鉄橋、愛子岳等周りの景色に目を凝らしながら必死で歩く。歩き方は、力を入れないで脱力で幽霊のように歩くことがコツだそうだ。
小杉谷宿舎を越えた道脇で第1回目の休憩。ここでは、百名山を48日で達成したと言う”斜めに走るような不思議な歩き方”を見せてもらった。ツアーメンバ
ーでガイドさんと懇意の30代の若者が同行。幸いなことに、その方が私の荷物を持ってくださることになった。私は身軽になり教えてもらった脱力の歩き方を真似て驚くほどスピードを増して歩くことができるようになった。大株歩道入口までのトロッコ道約8、5㎞はかなり長い。トイレ休息後本格的な登り道。トロッコ道と違って険しい。けれども次々と出会う太古で奇形な屋久杉達に感動。解説や体験談を聞きながらのトレッキングは楽しい。極めつけはウイルソン株。空に向かって輝く黄緑のハート形。ハート型を天にツアーみんなで記念撮影。急な登りや下りは休まずゆっくり歩く。浮いた片足を休ませながら歩行する。骨盤よりも下に体重をかけない。などの歩き方を繰り返し伝授し手助をして頂く。ついに憧れの縄文杉と対面。2,3か所の見学ポイントからゆっくりじっくりと対面することができ大大満足。ツアーガイドさんの島津さん、荷物を最後まで持って頂いた好青年、ツアーメンバーの優しさと励まし、好天、様々な幸運に恵まれた貴重な一生の思い出となる体験でした。島津ガイドの歩き方魔術で、川遊びも楽しみ4時半頃には登山口にツアーメンバーそろって下山できました。「縄文杉に会いたい」という同じ願いを通して人と人の出会い、同じ目的を持った者同士、声を掛け合う姿。”人間っていいな"を深く感じた体験になりました。本当に有難うございました。

I was relieved that they brought trekking shoes to the airport on the arrival day and matched them for us. My son, who is in his twenties, participated, and since the trekking group was made up of people from the same generation, he was able to walk at a young person's pace. He was able to see Jomon Sugi and was guided to various places on the way there and back.

The bus provides a shuttle service to the hotel, which is reassuring. Due to COVID-19 measures, each person uses two seats. The local bus guide shared stories from their childhood to the present, making the tour enjoyable. In fact, I had already visited Yakusugi Land and the Jomon Sugi by rental car the day before, but having a guide made everything clearer. The itinerary is packed, but the pace is relaxed, accommodating everyone from students to elderly individuals with canes. It was great to encounter Yakuzaru and Yakushika on the Eastern Forest Road.

I participated on the morning of March 10. The weather was wonderful, and it was very nice. It was a fun hike with a variety of experiences, such as crossing rivers and bridges, walking along mountain paths, and enjoying wooden walkways. The guide was an enjoyable person with remarkable stamina for someone in their 70s. As we drove up into the mountains, it felt significantly colder when we arrived at the starting point compared to when we left the hotel. It would be good to have a neck guard and gloves. The round trip took about three and a half hours. We took a break of about 20 minutes at the final destination, the mossy forest, and the Yakushima tankan we received was sweet and very delicious. There were announcements for restrooms at the starting point of the hike and along the way back.
3月10日の午前に参加しました。
お天気に恵まれ、とても良かったです。
川や橋を渡ったり、山道を歩いたり、木の遊歩道もあったりと変化に富んだ楽しい山歩きでした。
ガイドは70代と思えぬ健脚のお話が楽しい方でした。
車で山の中を登るので、スタート地点に着くとホテルを出た時よりかなり寒く感じました。ネックガード手袋があるといいです。

You take a bus at 4 AM and walk for a round trip of 10 hours, but the first half of the tour, which involves walking along the trolley tracks, is not too difficult since it's just walking on a path. On the way there, it's still dark as the sun hasn't risen, which adds a thrilling element to the experience.
The real challenge comes after finishing the trolley path. Whether you can clear this part is the deciding factor for reaching Jomon Sugi. If you exercise regularly, I think you'll be able to manage it without any issues.
I was able to see Wilson's stump, the Great King Cedar, and Jomon Sugi at the perfect timing. It's definitely worth going for this. There are things that can't be conveyed through photos.
朝4時にバスに乗って、歩いて往復10時間のツアーですが、前半のトロッコの線路を歩く行程は道を歩くだけなので、そんなに大変ではありません。行きは日が昇っておらず、周りが暗いのでドキドキを味わえます。
本番はトロッコ道を終えてから。ここをクリアできるかが、縄文杉まで行けるかの分かれ道です。普段から運動していれば問題なく行けると思います。
ウィルソン株も大王杉も縄文杉も最高のタイミングで見ることができました。これのために行く価値は十分にあります。
写真では伝わらないものがありますよ。

The guide took a lot of photos for us, and we had a lot of fun using a slow camera for the first time, capturing dynamic panoramic photos of the moss-covered forest. The next day's visit to Jomon Sugi was canceled due to a spring storm. The day after that, bus operations were also canceled because of the spring storm. I will definitely seek revenge on Jomon Sugi! ♬
飛行機が、11時過ぎに到着して、13時スタートに参加しました。私達家族だけの参加でした。
ガイドさんの説明もとてもわかりやすく、
楽しかったです。後半崩れる予定の天気も最後まで雨には降られませんでした。
ガイドさんには写真もとてもたくさん撮影して頂き、今まで1度も使った事の無い、スローカメラでの撮影、パノラマ写真のダイナミックな苔むす森、、とても楽しい思いとなりました。
翌日の縄文杉は春の嵐で中止となりました。
翌々日も、春の嵐でバス運行が中止となりました
縄文杉、、絶対リベンジしまーす♬

In the light rain, I, with no mountaineering experience, participated feeling full of doubts. My husband was very eager to go. We took a break halfway up. I was hesitating, thinking that if I turned back now, my husband would keep bringing it up, when the guide said, "If you're unsure, let's go!" and we set off?! In the end, we reached the summit of Taiko Rock! I'm so glad I didn't turn back halfway. I felt a great sense of achievement! Thank you, guide!
小雨の中、登山経験のない私。途中挫折満々で参加。夫は行く気満々。半分まできて休憩。これで帰ったら夫にずっと言われると迷っていたら、ガイドさんが迷っているなら行きましょうと出発?!で、結果、太鼓岩登頂!途中で帰らなくてよかった〜。目標達成感ありあり!
ガイドさん、ありがとうございました〜。
Thank you for participating in the tour.
I appreciate your flexibility in rescheduling due to the severe weather. I'm really glad we had a backup day. Even though it rained on the rescheduled date, you both did an amazing job and achieved your goals. Thank you for your hard work.
If you have the opportunity to visit again, let's go to the mountains together. Thank you!
この度はツアーへのご参加ありがとうございました。
もともとの日程は大荒れの天気から、翌日に振り替えてのご参加ありがとうございました。
予備日があって本当に良かったと思います。
とはいっても、振り替えた日程も雨でしたが、お二人のがんばりで見事目標達成、本当にお疲れ様でした。
また来島の機会がございましたら、また一緒に山に行きましょう、ありがとうございました。

I had a great time. I was wondering what to do since I can't drive a car or a motorcycle myself, but I'm glad I decided to participate. I would like to use this service again.
楽しかったです。自分で車やバイクを運転できないので、どうしようかと思っていたのですが、思いきって参加してみて良かったです。また利用したいです。

What I communicated as changes in advance was not reflected until the day of the event. Even on the day, when I sought assistance at the airport, my requests were not considered, and it felt like I had to accommodate the staff's convenience rather than receiving service myself. Specifically, there was a misunderstanding regarding the size of the rental items, and the taxi driver was not informed about the drop-off point for the return trip, which resulted in a detour. I was also instructed to return the rental items to the hotel front desk, but when I followed those instructions, I was told that they hadn't been informed about it. I felt that communication was not effective.
On the other hand, the guides for the activities and the taxi drivers were very considerate and provided excellent service.
事前に変更として伝えたことが、当日まで反映されておらず、当日、空港で対応時も、こちらの要望もきいてもらえず、何かと空港での対応スタッフの都合に合わせる形になり、どちらがサービスを受ける側なのか疑問に思った。具体的には、レンタルアイテムのサイズも行き違いあり、帰路の下車ポイントもタクシーの運転手さんに伝わっておらず遠回りになってしまい、レンタル品の返却も滞在ホテルのフロントへ持って行くように指示されたので言われたとおり持っていくと聞いてないといわれ、いろいろ伝達がうまく行っていないと感じた。
一方、アクテビティ本体のガイドさんやタクシーの運転手さんは、細かいところまで配慮のある方で、対応がとても気持ちよかったです。

I felt at ease participating because the guide considered our pace while climbing. For someone like me with no mountaineering experience, knowing where to take breaks was very reassuring. Additionally, during the climb, the guide shared information about the mountains, plants, and history, which was very helpful. This program is great for those with little climbing experience, and I am very satisfied.
ガイドさんがペースを考えて登ってくれるので安心して参加することができました。どこで休みを取るのかというのは登山経験の無い私にはとても心強いものでした。また登山中は山・植物・歴史等の話をしてくださりとても参考になりました。山登りの経験の少ない人にも安心して参加できるプログラムでとても満足です。

I had no experience in trekking, but the guide was able to gauge the pace and led us comfortably, so I felt at ease participating. The guide had extensive knowledge about the mountains, and the stories were very interesting. The view from Taiko Rock was breathtaking.
トレッキングの経験がありませんでしたが、ガイドさんがペースを見極めてス進めてくれたので安心して参加することができました。山に関する知識が豊富でお話がとても面白かったです。太鼓岩から見える景色は絶景でした。

It wasn't exactly easy, but it was better than I imagined. There was another group with participants in their 70s, and they reached Jomon Sugi around the same time as my group, which only had people in their 20s. They looked cheerful and were laughing on the bus ride back! For those who are going, I highly recommend wearing sturdy shoes and socks. I got blisters from my unfamiliar hiking boots, but the guide lent me long socks, which helped prevent severe pain.
簡単でした!とはとても言えませんが想像より大丈夫でした。
別のグループでしたが70代の方も参加されており20代しかいなかった私のグループとほぼ同じタイミングで縄文杉まで辿り着いていし帰りのバスでも元気そうに笑っていました!
これから行く人はとにかく靴と靴下をしっかりした物にする事をオススメします。
私は慣れない登山靴で靴擦れしガイドさんが長い靴下を貸してくださりそれのおかげでひどい痛みにはならずに行けました。

On the way there, I encountered monkeys and deer, which really boosted my excitement. The guide provided detailed explanations, and we were able to go at a leisurely pace to Taiko Rock. On the way back, it rained, but the forest in the rain was magical, and it felt nice to walk through it. The moss looked even greener and more beautiful in the rain. After returning, I plan to rewatch "Princess Mononoke."
行きの道中、猿やシカに遭遇してテンションがあがりました。
ガイドの方も丁寧に説明してくれ、ゆっくりペースで太鼓岩まで行くことができました。
帰りは雨でしたが、雨の中の森は幻想的で、歩いていて気持ち良かったです。
雨だと苔がより緑色になって綺麗でした。
そして、帰ったら「もののけ姫」を見返そうと思います。
Dear YU,
Thank you very much for participating in the trekking tour and for sharing your experience.
Yakushima was once said to have a family of 60,000, including 20,000 humans, 20,000 monkeys, and 20,000 deer, but now all of these numbers have decreased. There are days when you may not see deer or monkeys on the roads leading to Shiratani Unsuikyo or within the park, so it's great that you were able to see them.
Shiratani Unsuikyo is also known as the "Moss Forest." While it's easier to walk when it's sunny, the plants may appear dry and lacking vitality. However, when it rains, the plants come to life, and when mist occurs, you can see a fantastical landscape, so I hope you were able to take beautiful photos.
We look forward to your next visit after watching "Princess Mononoke" a few times.

この度は、トレッキングツアーにご参加頂き、そして体験談に投稿頂き、誠にありがとうございました。
屋久島は昔、人2万、猿2万、シカ2万の6万のファミリーと言われていましたが、今は全てが減って、白谷雲水峡に行く道路や園内でも
シカ・サルを見れない日もありますので、見れて良かったですね。
白谷雲水峡は別名「苔むす森」と呼ばれており、晴れていた方が歩きやすいですが、逆に植物は乾燥して元気が無いように見えますが、
雨が降ると植物が生き生きとし、また靄が発生すると幻想的な景色が見れますので、写真も綺麗に撮れたのではないでしょうか。
それでは、「もののけ姫」を何度か見ましたらまたのご来島を心よりお待ちしております。

Dear Tetsu & Nobu,
Thank you very much for participating in our trekking tour and for sharing your experience.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, many customers have chosen Yakushima when looking for domestic travel options. The Jomon Sugi course is indeed long and challenging, but as you mentioned in your review, the abundant nature that you can't find in the city must have been truly moving.
We, who live here, hope to continue coexisting with nature.
We sincerely look forward to your next visit to the island.

コロナ渦で海外に行けず、それでは国内でと探した時に屋久島を選択するお客様が多く、縄文杉コースは長くキツイコースだったと思いますが、体験談で書かれている
通り、都会には無い自然あふれる姿は感動されたのではないでしょうか。
これから現地に住んでいる私たちが自然と共存して生きていきたいと思っております。
