At first, I wasn't confident in my physical strength, so I thought it might be okay to just go to the mossy forest, but I'm really glad I decided to go all the way to Taiko Rock! The view from the top of Taiko Rock was amazing! Since I had gone on the Jomon Sugi tour the day before, this tour felt short and easy in comparison.
最初は体力に自信がなかったので、苔むす森まででもいいかなぁ~と思っていたのですが、太鼓岩まで行くことにして本当に良かったです!太鼓岩まで登りきった時の景色は最高でした!
前日に縄文杉ツアーに行っていたので、このツアーが短く楽に感じてしまいました。

I participated alone and wasn't confident in my physical strength, but I was able to go all the way and come back!
Unlike other tours, we traveled to the trailhead by a dedicated vehicle, so I could sleep on the way (although I was too captivated by the starry night sky outside the window to actually sleep…). It was great that we weren't rushed on the way back either, so I could relax. The guide was a very kind and friendly young person.
Before reaching Jomon Sugi, there are many impressive cedar trees, which made Jomon Sugi seem a bit overshadowed, but the mystical atmosphere of Jomon Sugi is still unmatched. The sense of achievement is incredible!!
There were various people climbing, from small children to the elderly, so if you're a bit worried, why not give it a try? (^ -^)
1人参加で、体力にも自信がなかったのですが、最後まで行って帰って来られました!
他のツアーと違って、登山口まで専用車で行くので、行きは車内で寝られるし(でも、車内から見た夜空の満点の星に夢中で実際は寝られず…)、帰りも時間を気にせず急かされないのでとても良かったです。ガイドさんはとても優しく親切な若い方でした。
縄文杉にたどり着く前にたくさんの立派な杉があるので、縄文杉がかすんでしまう位でしたが、やはり神秘的な雰囲気は縄文杉が勝ります。ものすごい達成感がありますよ!!
小さなお子さんやお年寄りの方まで、色々な人が登っていたので、ちょっと心配している方もチャレンジしてみては?(^-^)

As a private guide, they adjusted the pace according to our fitness level, allowing us to walk comfortably and enjoyably. Since it was a long distance, I initially had some concerns, but they taught us about the flora and fauna along the way, as well as the history of Yakushima, and answered our questions accurately. I'm really glad we chose to go with them this time. I would like to request their services again when I visit Yakushima. For those who are going soon, I think it would be smooth to purchase round-trip bus tickets in advance at the tourist center.
プライベートガイドということで、私たちの体力を見ながらペース調整してくださり、安心して楽しく歩けました。長距離なので当初は不安もありましたが、道々の動植物、屋久島の歴史など教えていただきつつ、こちらの質問にも的確に答えてくださったので今回お願いして本当に良かったと思います。また屋久島に行く際はお願いしたいです。なおこれから行かれる方へ、バスの往復チケットは事前に観光センターで購入しておくとスムーズだと思います。

The veteran guide was amazing! They provided clear explanations while mixing in puns and little anecdotes. Not only did they explain the Yakusugi trees, but they also shared a lot about various plants like flowers and moss. They were attentive to our pace and stamina, and looking back, I feel they offered a lot of encouragement during the monotonous stretches of the trolley path.
There were so many recommended photo spots from the guide, and each time I handed over my camera, I thought it might have been better to just let them keep it, as they took so many great shots. At the start, I was worried about whether I could keep up this pace, but with breaks for restroom stops and resting with our backpacks at key points, I think they did a great job of helping us refresh our spirits.
At the spring water refill points, they always checked in with us, and the miso soup they made for lunch was fantastic. Even though it was hot enough to make us sweat, drinking warm miso soup was so comforting. I was grateful they brought a thermos for that.
While our goal was to see Jomon Sugi, every sight along the way and the journey itself became truly wonderful memories. I want to visit Yakushima again, and I would love to request the same guide for a tour of different locations. Thank you so much!
Lastly, about the weather and clothing:
There were some cloudy moments, but it was mostly sunny. It wasn't cold at all. It seems that until last week, it was cold enough for snow to remain, but warm days without rain have continued. Because of this, the flowers seemed to start blooming early.
- Lightweight underlayer
- Collared long-sleeve shirt (I wanted to take it off at one point)
- Sleeveless fleece (I took it off right at the first break)
- Waterproof outer layer
- Under tights
- Trekking pants
ベテランガイドさんは最高でいた!
ダジャレや小ネタを挟みながらも、要所要所できちんとした解説。屋久杉だけでなく草花や苔等の植物の解説も沢山して頂きました。
私たちのペース、体力も気に掛けて頂き、後から考えると単調に続くトロッコ道での解説、声掛けが特に多かったように思います。
写真もガイドさんお勧めポイントがとても沢山あって、その度にカメラを渡すのですが、ずっと預けていた方が良いのではないかと思うほど沢山撮って頂きました。
歩き始めた時はこのペースでずっと歩けるのかと不安になりましたが、トイレ休憩も含めザックを下ろしての休憩も要所要所であり、私たちを上手く気分転換させてくれていたと思います。
湧き水の給水ポイントでは必ず声掛けをして頂きましたし、お昼ご飯の時に作って頂いたお味噌汁はサイコーでした。汗をいっぱいかくほど暑いのに温かいお味噌汁を飲むとホッとしました。そのための保温水筒を背負ってきてくれていたと思うと感謝でした。
縄文杉を見に行く事が目的でしたが、見るもの全て、そこに至るまでの行程が本当に素敵な思い出になりました。
また屋久島に来たいと思いましたし、また今日のガイドさんにお願いして違う場所を巡りたいと思えるツアーでした。
本当にありがとうございました。
最後に天候と服装です。
曇るときもありましたが概ね晴れ。
寒くはなかったです。
先週まで雪も残るほど寒かったとは思えないほど、雨も降らず暖かい日が続いていたそうです。そのため花も早く咲き始めていたようでした。

Shiratani Unsuikyo was worth participating in. However, it felt like not everyone could enjoy it because the guide was only talking to one person and didn't consider the pace for the whole group.
白谷雲水峡は、参加した甲斐がありました。ガイドさんが1人の方とばかり話して全体のペースをみずに歩いていたので、参加全員が楽しめなかったように感じました。

The return boat was scheduled for 13:30, which was quite early, and I was told I wouldn't make it to other tours. However, since we departed early in the morning, we were able to climb to Taiko Rock and catch the boat without any issues.
Many of the other climbers didn't have guides, but thanks to our guide, I was able to notice rocks and trees that I might have missed otherwise. It was also really enjoyable to hear behind-the-scenes stories from when various media came to visit.
帰りの船が13:30と早目で、他のツアーには間に合わないと言われてしまったのですが、こちらは早朝に出発してくれたため、太鼓岩まで登って、無事船にも乗れました。
他の登山客は、割とガイドをつけてない方が多かったのですが、ガイドさんがいてくれるお陰で見逃してしまいそうな岩、木々も目に止めることができ、色々なメディアがやって来たときの裏話なども聞けてとても楽しかったです。

I participated in a round-trip trekking tour to Jomon Sugi that took ten hours. Since the flat trolley path continues for a long time, I think it would have been tough without a guide who shared bits of knowledge along the way. The trail itself is easy to walk, and my 50-year-old mother, who joined me, was able to reach Jomon Sugi safely. Even my sister, who hardly exercises, managed to go without any difficulty, so I don't think there's much to worry about in terms of physical fitness.
縄文杉まで往復十時間のトレッキングツアーに参加しました。
平坦なトロッコ道が長時間続くので、ちょこちょこと知識を教えてくれるガイドさんがいないと、きつかったなと思います。
道事態は歩きやすく、一緒に参加した50歳の母も無事縄文杉までたどり着けましたし、日ごろほとんど運動していない社会人の姉も難なく行くことができたので体力面の心配はそこまで不要かと思います。

I finally got to go on a Yakushima tour. I participated with another housewife in her 50s from Hiroshima. The day before, the guide called us, and he picked us up at 4:30 the next morning. This time, we were a group of six, including three university students.
The hiking trail with stones and roots was tougher than I expected. The moss-covered stones were slippery, and if I let my guard down, I could easily fall. I focused on my footing to avoid bothering everyone. Thanks to that, I was able to see Jomon Sugi and the moss forest, which was truly moving.
The guide was experienced and gave us various pieces of advice. He said, "This course is efficient and highly recommended." I completely agree. It's hard, but it's better than splitting it over two days, as we could use our time effectively. By the way, the next day, we enjoyed a drive around Yakushima.
Although I was hit with muscle pain the day after the hike, I was relieved to have made it down safely. I want to give myself a pat on the back. We were blessed with clear weather, making it the best day ever. The only regret is that I didn't have the chance to leisurely gaze at the starry sky. Just before dawn, the stars were falling like rain.
I wonder if I will see the guide again. He was truly impressive. I thought it might be nice to age gracefully like that. Thank you for everything.
念願の屋久島ツアー。広島から50代の主婦2人で参加しました。
前日にガイドさんから電話があり、翌朝4時半にガイドさんが迎えにきてくれました。今回は3人の大学生と計6人のグループで行動しました。
石と根っこの登山道は思った以上に大変でした。苔の生えた石も滑るし、気を許すと転んでしまいます。皆に迷惑をかけてはいけないので足元に集中しました。おかげで縄文杉も、苔の森も見ることができて感動しました。
ガイドさんはベテランで、いろいろアドバイスをいただきました。いわく「このコースは、効率よくまわれておすすめ」と。私も同感。ハードですが、2日に分けて行くより、時間をうまく使えます。ちなみに私たちは翌日、屋久島一周ドライブを楽しみました。
登山翌日は筋肉痛に見舞われたものの、無事に下山できてほっとしています。自分で自分をほめてあげたい。
快晴にも恵まれ、最高の一日でした。残念なのは、星空をゆっくり眺める余裕がなかったこと。夜明け前は、降るような星空でした。
ガイドさん、また会えるかな。さすがでした。あんなふうにすてきに年を取るのもよいかなと思いました。お世話になりました。
Dear Rinrin,
Thank you very much for applying for the Jomon Sugi and Shiratani Unsuikyo One-Day (Taiko Rock) Traversing Course.
The course we walked this time is quite challenging, and there are many voices suggesting that it should be removed from the menu because it is "too tough" even among Yakushima. However, many customers have only a 2-night, 3-day itinerary, and if they want to visit Jomon Sugi, Shiratani Unsuikyo (Moss Forest), and Taiko Rock in the middle of their trip, this is the only course available.
Recently, as a result of instructing guides to constantly monitor customers' physical conditions, the number of customers retiring from the course has decreased. I will convey to the responsible guide, S, that you were very satisfied.
Please come back to Yakushima again if you have the opportunity.

しかし、お客様の行程が2泊3日しかとれないお客様が多く、中日に縄文杉・白谷雲水峡(苔の森)・太鼓岩に行こうとするとこのコースしかありません。
最近は、ガイドにお客様の体調管理を常に見るように指示した結果、リタイアするお客様も減っております。

I participated with my daughter, and although we are beginners in hiking, we chose the advanced course from Shiratani Unsuikyo to Taiko Rock, Jomon Sugi, and Arakawa-guchi.
Fortunately, there were only two participants in the tour, making it a private tour. We were moved by the starry sky as we started our hike. We were blessed with good weather and were able to walk happily until the end.
Our handsome guide, who loves nature and families, kindly and attentively guided us, and the 14 hours, including hotel pick-up, flew by. We considered splitting Shiratani Unsuikyo & Taiko Rock and Jomon Sugi over two days, but I’m glad we did it in one day.
This is because the day after the hike, I had muscle pain and my legs were shaky, making it difficult to walk, so I don't think I could have gone hiking on the second day.
It’s a tough course for someone who doesn’t exercise at all, but even at 55 years old, with an office job, I was fine with just a few minutes of daily exercises like going up and down stairs and squats.
Even though it was a day trip, our guide had a large backpack, and in addition to preparations for emergencies, he provided mats for breaks, warm miso soup, and herbal tea, which I truly appreciated.
I made wonderful memories with my daughter. Thank you very much!
娘と二人で参加、登山初心者ですが白谷雲水峡→太鼓岩→縄文杉→荒川口の上級コースを選びました。
ラッキーなことにツアー参加者は二人だけでプライベートツアーとなりました。
満天の星に感動しての登山スタート。お天気に恵まれ最後までご機嫌で歩けました。
自然とご家族を愛するイケメンガイドさんが親切丁寧に案内してくださり、ホテル送迎含んで14時間という時間がアッという間でした。
白谷雲水峡&太鼓岩と縄文杉を二日に分けることも考えましたが、一日にしてよかったです。
何故なら登山の翌日は筋肉痛で足がガクガクになり歩くのも大変になったので、2日目の登山は行けなかったと思います。。
全く運動していない人には厳しいコースですが、オフィスワークで55歳の私でも階段の上り下りやスクワット等の運動を毎日数分するだけの準備で大丈夫でした。
日帰りだというのにガイドさんのザックは大きく、もしもの時の準備に加え、休憩時の敷物や温かいお味噌汁やハーブティ等を準備してくださり、その優しさを心から嬉しく思いました。
娘との最高の思い出が出来ました。ありがとうございました!
Dear Yukimama,
Thank you very much for signing up for the Jomon Sugi and Shiratani Unsuikyo 1-day (Taiko Rock) traverse course.
Looking at the photos, it seems like the weather was clear and walking was easy. There is also an option to split the Jomon Sugi and Shiratani Unsuikyo into two days, but completing it in one day is shorter in distance, so if you have a certain level of fitness, you can manage it.

I left my family behind and went on a solo trip to Yakushima from Aichi Prefecture. I thought about going with my spouse someday, so I signed up for a guided tour for a day trip trekking to Jomon Sugi as a preliminary visit.
I felt good from early morning, and I was prepared to deal with the cold as long as I kept moving. I left the Anbo bus stop and headed to the trailhead just after 4:30 AM.
After that, the seven members participating in the same guide M's tour gathered, and we set off. However, shortly after, two people had to withdraw at the bridge of the trolley train where there were no handrails for various reasons.
As a result, four women and I, a total of five people, followed guide M as we made our way along the trolley path. The explanations at key points were well-timed with short breaks, and surprisingly, we reached Jomon Sugi without much trouble.
The weather was absolutely perfect, and the observation deck was not crowded, allowing us to view the 7,000-year-old tree from various angles. I felt a sense of presence and dignity in the magnificent tree, witnessing the power of nature firsthand.
The distant mountains on the way there and back were also clearly visible, making it a very good tour.
However, by the time we arrived at the accommodation above Mos Burger, I had injured the muscles behind my knees to the point where I could hardly climb the stairs. Thanks to M's advice on recovery methods, I was able to return home without much impact the next day.
家族を置いて愛知県から単独旅行で屋久島に旅しに行きました。いつかは夫婦でと思い、下見兼ねて今回ガイド付きツアーで縄文杉日帰りトレッキングに申し込みました。
早朝から体調も良く、寒さは動けばなんとかなると覚悟して早朝4:30過ぎに安房バス停から登山口まで移動。
その後同じガイドMさんのツアーに参加するメンバー7名が集い、いざ出発するがしばらくして手すりないトロッコ列車の橋の所で2名が訳あって棄権。
結果、女性4名と私1名の計5名がガイドのMさんを追うようにトロッコ道をグイグイと進みました。要所要所の説明を、小休憩兼ねて程よいタイミングで入れていただき長いようで意外とあっけなく、無事に縄文杉まで到達しました。
とにかく天気は最高で、展望台も混雑なく色々な角度から7000年の歴史の産物を見学しました。壮大な樹木には何か宿ってる気迫というか威厳を感じ、自然の力を目の当たりにしました。
行き帰りの遠方の山々もハッキリと拝めとても良いツアーでした。
ただ、モスバーガー上の宿に着いた時には階段上がれないほど膝裏の筋を痛めてました。
Mさんに聞いた疲労回復法で翌日の帰路には影響もほぼなく無事に帰宅出来ました。

たまに降るとのこと。返って苔の緑と相まって、幻想的で良かったです。
ガイドさんが親切で楽しかった~!
このツアーおすすめです(^_-)-☆

I was worried because I didn't have confidence in my physical strength, but thanks to the guide, I was able to enjoy the experience and reach my destination safely. I was able to see the Wilson stump and Yakusugi beautifully, and I made some wonderful memories. Thank you very much!
体力に自信がなく不安もありましたが、ガイドさんのおかげで楽しみ安全に辿り着けました。
ウィルソン株も屋久杉もキレイに見ることができて、とてもいい思い出ができました。本当にありがとうございました!

I finally got to take my long-awaited trip to Yakushima and participated in a bus tour to circle the island. Unfortunately, the western forest road was blocked, so the bus couldn't pass, which was disappointing. The driver and guide were both excellent. Thanks to them, I had a wonderful day.
念願だった屋久島旅行 島一周がしたくてバスツアーに参加させていただきました。あいにく西部林道が崩れてバスが通れなくてざんねんでした。運転手さん件ガイドさん大変よかったです。おかげで楽しく一日すごせました。

I participated only in the morning to match my flight schedule, but I had a great time sightseeing. I would like to spend a full day exploring Yakushima when I visit again.
フライト時刻に合わせて午前中だけの参加でしたが、とても楽しく観光できました。また屋久島を訪れるときは1日たっぷりと観光してみたいです。

I wanted to feel the grandeur and vitality of nature that has continued since ancient times, so I joined this tour. We were picked up by bus at the early hour of 5 AM and taken to the trailhead, where the tour began. We climbed a long, long trolley path for about three hours, and then ascended a steep slope. The tour was challenging yet very enjoyable as I experienced the magnificence of the great cedar trees and the difference in air within the ancient forest. It was also a good opportunity to realize the decline in my leg muscles after many years of working in an office. I feel motivated to train my body and try again; I highly recommend this tour.
古代から脈々と続く大自然の荘厳さと生命力のすごさを感じたいと思い、このツアーに参加しました。なんと5時という早朝からバスで登山口に送られ、そこからツアーが始まりました。長い長いトロッコ道を3時間くらい上り、そこから険しい坂道を登山しますが、大自然の大きな杉の荘厳さと古代樹林の空間の空気の違いを感じながらのツアー工程は厳しくも非常に楽しいものでした。そして、長年の会社生活の間に衰えてしまった足の筋肉の減退を自身で十分に感じた良い機会でもありました。 体を鍛えなおして、再度チャレンジしてみたいとも思う、お勧めのツアーです。

The day before, I went on a Jomon Sugi tour, so I wanted to experience the nature that inspired "Princess Mononoke," and I participated in this "Shiratani Unsuikyo Tour." The hiking trail wasn't too steep, and it was a nice tour that could be completed in half a day. Along the way, there were indeed large cedars, and after a while, I reached the moss-covered "Mononoke Forest." It was a space that calmed my mind and created a very peaceful atmosphere, allowing me to feel a different aura from the city as I descended.
It was a very good tour.
前日に縄文杉ツアーに行ったので、続いて「ジブリのもののけ姫」のモチーフになった自然を感じたいと思い、この「白谷雲水峡ツアー」に参加しました。登山道はそんなに険しくなく、半日で往復できる程よいツアーでした。 途中には、やはり大きな杉がそびえ、また、しばらく行くと苔むす「もののけの森」に行きつきました。 そこは、心が和み、とても気持ちが静かになるような雰囲気の空間で、都会とは違うオーラを十分に感じて下山できました。
とても良いツアーでした。

On December 31, I went trekking to Yakusugi. I was worried about snow, but there was none; however, I had to endure heavy rain and hail along the way, and somehow managed to complete the entire trek. While marching for hours in the rain, I thought about how it must have been for soldiers in the past. Water seeped into my rainwear from halfway through, but I managed to keep moving and maintain my body temperature by changing my inner layers. A Ziploc bag is essential. The restrooms were available at intervals that were not problematic, contrary to what I had heard beforehand. However, after returning, my body was extremely cold, and I thought I might catch a cold, but after taking a hot bath, I was fine. On January 1, I trekked through the forest of Princess Mononoke. There was no rain, but the strong wind took away my body heat. Even without rain, my inner layers got wet from sweat, so I realized that adjusting my inner layers and having good outerwear is crucial during cold periods. On the way back, thanks to the kindness of our guide, we were taken to the western area where Yakuzaru and Yakushika can be found. It was a perfect two days.
12/31は、屋久杉までのトレッキング。心配してた雪はなかったのですが、途中からの激しい雨と雹が降り注ぐ中どうにかがんばって全工程を歩ききりました。何時間も雨の中を行軍する体験は、昔の兵隊さんはこうだったのかなあと思いながら歩きました。途中からはレインウエアの中に水が染み込みましたが、インナーを替えながらどうにか体を動かして体温を保つことができました。ジップロックは必須です。トイレも、事前情報より問題ない間隔でありました。ただ、帰ってきた後は半端なく体が冷えて風邪をひくかと思いましたが熱い風呂に入り大事には至りませんでした。1/1は、もののけ姫の森をトレッキング。雨はなかったのですが、風が強く体温を奪いました。雨でなくても汗などでインナーが濡れますので、こまめにインナーの増減やアウターの良いものが寒い時期には肝心だと思いました。帰りにガイドさんの好意で、屋久猿や屋久鹿のいる西部まで連れて行ってもらいました。パーフェクトな二日間でした。

I was feeling unwell, but I was helped by being picked up right in front of the guesthouse. I was able to circle Yakushima in one day and see monkeys and deer, visit waterfalls, the banyan tree, Inakahama Beach, and the Jomon Sugi. Considering the meals included at this price, the cost performance is so good that I was worried if it was worth it. The meals were like a lunch set from a restaurant that also had a souvenir shop. Guests participating in the tour ate together at two tables. It wasn't a very casual atmosphere for chatting with each other, so it felt a bit uneasy.
体調不良だったのですが、民宿前までピックアップに来てもらい、助かりました。1日で屋久島を1周できて猿や鹿も見れて、滝やガジュマル、いなか浜、紀元杉を周り、食事付きでこの価格ですから、元がとれるのか心配になるくらいコスパが良いです。食事はお土産やさんを併設したレストランのランチセットみたいなもの。ツアーに参加した客が2つのテーブルで一緒に食べる。お互い雑談するような雰囲気ではなかったので、少し落ち着かなかったかな。

I participated in a half-day tour in the afternoon. The driver was knowledgeable and provided explanations while we toured together, and I was able to get photos taken from the best angles. It exceeded my expectations.
午後の半日ツアーに参加しました。運転手さんは知識豊富で、一緒に回って説明、ベストな角度から写真も撮ってもらえました。
思っていた以上の内容でした。

Even if you're not very interested in mountain climbing, it's moving! The one-way trip takes about 4 to 5 hours, which is tough, but there are various types of cedar trees along the route, so you won't get bored. Once I saw the Jomon cedar at the goal, I forgot my fatigue. The return trip is downhill, so it's surprisingly easy to get back.
登山にはあまり興味がなくても感動します!
片道4~5時間は大変ですが、ルート上には色んな杉がみられるので飽きません。
ゴールの縄文杉を見たら疲れを忘れました。
帰りは下りなので、以外と楽に戻れます。

Hello, I'm a participant from HK. This time, I joined a local tour in Japan for the first time with my friend. It was the best tour. With the guidance of a kind tour guide, we were able to safely reach the mossy forest. The stories along the way were enjoyable (I couldn't understand everything in the explanations, though...), and it was a very good experience. The weather in December was nice, and since it was about a three-hour round trip trek, it was easier than I expected, and I'm glad I went! Thank you!
ハーロー〜HKからの参加者です。今回、友達と初めて日本のローカルツアーに参加させていただきました。最高のツワーでした。優しいガイドさんの案内で無事に苔むす森まで行くことが出来ました。途中でのお話など楽しく(説明の内容はすべてが理解できませんが...)、とても良い経験でした。12月の天候も良くて、往復3時間くらいのトレッキングなので、思うより簡単で、行って良かったです❗ありがとうございます❗
