I was guided by Mr. Mitsuhashi.
Even though we departed in the dark, I felt safe walking thanks to his guidance.
I participated alone, but I appreciated the atmosphere he created that allowed me to connect with the other participants.
It was raining and cold at Jomon Sugi, but I was very happy to be offered a warm drink.
He supported us throughout to ensure we could take great photos, and I was impressed by his service spirit.
He was very knowledgeable, and I learned a lot about Yakushima, so I’m really glad I participated.
I highly recommend him as a guide and this tour!
Thank you so much!

Since there were no other participants besides us, we had a trekking experience where adjustments were made to the meeting place and walking pace. While walking, we enjoyed explanations about Yakushima's history and nature, as well as time for taking photos and having our pictures taken. Thank you very much for the wonderful time.
私達以外の参加者が、たまたま居なかったので集合場所の変更や歩く速度の調整をしていただきながらのトレッキングとなりました。歩きながら、屋久島の歴史や自然などを説明していただいたり、写真撮影の時間を取ったり、撮影していただいたりと楽しい時間を過ごさせていただきました。有難う御座いました。
Dear couple in your 60s,
Thank you for participating in the Shiratani Unsuikyo trekking and for sharing your experience with us.
This time you walked the moss-covered forest round trip, but we encourage you to challenge yourself to reach Taiko Rock next time.
On a clear day, you can enjoy the view of the foreground, and in spring, the mountain cherry blossoms are a must-see.
We sincerely look forward to your next visit to the island.

Yakushima, which I had wanted to visit for a long time, was even more wonderful than I imagined. The guide's stories were very interesting and captivating. I tend to be more of an indoor person (outside of travel), but I am thinking of challenging myself to try hiking and experience nature from now on.
ずっと訪れたかった屋久島。想像以上に素晴らしい所でした。ガイドの方のお話しが非常に興味深く、惹き込まれました。インドア派(旅行以外)ですが、これからは自然を感じられるハイキングにも挑戦しようかと思っています。

I participated with a friend. It was my first time hiking such a long distance. I was quite anxious about whether I could keep up physically and mentally until the end, but thanks to the guide who took breaks at just the right times, helped me cross a scary suspension bridge by holding onto my backpack strap, and shared various points of interest and knowledge along the way, I was able to complete the hike safely. It was also great that we had enough time to take photos of Jomon Sugi while managing our time until the return bus.
Additionally, the guide was really skilled at photography, and all the pictures taken were perfectly framed and looked fantastic! I’m glad I relied on a guide who knows the mountains well for that reason too.
Everyone I met in Yakushima, including the staff at the equipment rental shop, the bus driver, the guide, and the family I trekked with, was very kind. Thank you for a lifetime of memories.
友達と2人で参加しました。はじめてこんなに長い距離の登山をしました。体力的にも精神的にも最後まで持つのか…不安が大きかったですが、ガイドさんがちょうどいいタイミングで休憩を入れてくれたり、吊り橋が怖くて渡れないときにリュックのヒモを掴ませて歩いてくれたり、道中の見どころや知識を教えてくれたり、さまざま助けてもらえたおかげで無事に踏破できました。帰りのバスまでの時間管理もしながら、縄文杉の撮影時間もゆっくり取ってもらえてよかったです。
また、カメラ撮影が本当に上手で、撮ってもらった写真はどれも画角が完璧でかっこいいです!そういった点でも山をよく知るガイドさんに頼んでよかったと思います。
装備レンタル店の方、バスの運転手さん、ガイドさん、一緒のチームでトレッキングしたご家族など、屋久島で出会った方は皆さんとても親切でした。一生の思い出をありがとうございました。

As a first-time hiker wearing climbing shoes and returning to Japan after four years, my long-time dream of traveling to Yakushima was the highlight of my trip, so I wanted to be fully prepared for the hike and booked a tour. Before the tour, I had various concerns, but thanks to our guide, Satoyan, I had a day filled with smiles from start to finish.
Climbing in unfamiliar shoes for long hours, battling the anxiety of possibly falling while navigating the steep rocky and wooded trails, and the seemingly endless trolley path covering over 11 kilometers, there were breathtaking views everywhere that made me want to stop and take photos. The joy and excitement far outweighed any feelings of fatigue.
Our group consisted mostly of beginner hikers, including those who usually work in offices and lacked confidence in long hikes, as well as individuals with concerns about their backs or knees. However, everyone managed to complete the hike successfully. Satoyan taught us how to support each other during the climb and provided motivational items throughout the tour, sharing stories about Yakushima's history and nature, which were very encouraging, especially when fatigue set in during the latter part of the hike. When we returned to the trailhead, we all high-fived each other, experiencing an indescribable sense of exhilaration. Immediately after getting off the bus on the way back, I was hit with intense muscle soreness that made going down stairs difficult until nightfall, but strangely, the pain disappeared by the next morning, and I felt so energized, as if I had received power from Yakushima.
Thank you so much, guide Watanabe (Satoyan). This tour, lasting about 12 hours, was packed with rich content, hospitality, and the beauty of Yakushima's nature. The sense of achievement that comes from participating in this tour is something you can't fully grasp unless you experience it yourself, and I highly recommend it.
If you're renting gear, larger rental climbing shoes may not be available, so if you have big feet, like size 29 cm, it's best to check in advance and make a reservation. One person in our group didn't have the right size and seemed to be in quite a bit of pain towards the end.
登山靴を履くのも初めてレベルの登山初心者だったのと、4年ぶりの日本帰国で長年の夢だった屋久島旅行がハイライトとなっていたので、万全な状態で登山したいと思いツアーを予約しました。ツアー前は色々不安な事もありましたが、ガイドのサトヤンのおかげで始めから最後までずっと口角上がりっぱなしの1日となりました。
慣れない登山靴、長時間の登山、いつか転ぶんじゃないかという不安と戦いながら登る険しい岩や木が敷いてある登山道、終わりの見えないトロッコ道、片道11キロ以上ある道のりでしたが、立ち止まって写真に収めたくなる風景が至る所にあり、気分アゲアゲポイントも沢山あるので、疲労感より楽しさや感動が圧勝していました。
私達のグループはほぼ全員登山初心者で、普段はオフィスワークで長時間の登山に自信のない人や腰や膝に不安がある人もいましたが、無事にみんな歩き切ることができました。サトヤンが登山前にどうやってみんなで歩ききるかを伝授してくれて、ツアーの間にもいろいろモチベーションを上げるアイテムを出してくれたり、所々で屋久島の歴史や自然の話をしてくれたりと、後半は疲労が溜まったり、足が痛かったりする中でとても励みになりました。登山口まで戻って来た時には全員でハイタッチして、なんとも言えない高揚感を味わう事ができました。帰りのバスを降りた直後に、ものすごい筋肉痛で階段降りるのが夜までしんどかったですが、不思議と次の日の朝は痛みも消え、その後も元気過ぎるくらいで屋久島からパワーもらえたような気がしました。
ガイドの渡辺さん(サトヤン)、本当にお世話になりました。12時間くらいのツアーでこの内容の濃さ、おもてなし、そして屋久島の自然の素晴らしさ、このツアーに参加しなければ伝わらない達成感など盛りだくさんなツアーで、かなりおすすめです。
宿などで借りる場合、大きめのレンタル登山靴がなかったりするので、29センチとか足の大きい人は事前にサイズがあるかどうか確認して、予約しておいた方がいいです。1人サイズがなくて、最後の方かなり痛そうでした。

Although I was the only participant, my guide was very accommodating and taught me a lot about Yakushima. They were knowledgeable and experienced, and had a rich sensibility, allowing me to fully enjoy the forest.
The mystical forest, with its damp, dark moss-covered trees and rocks after the rain, was enchanting. At the moment when light streamed in at an angle, a mist that floated like a haze emerged, and steam rose gently from the moss, making it feel alive and breathing. The leaves of the trees created swaying shadows on the green rocks, and raindrops on the moss sparkled like transparent orbs of light. In an instant, it seemed like a playful prism of light, as the droplets shimmered like red and blue jewels.
The scenery was truly a gift from the forest, woven together by the weather conditions of temperature, humidity, and the interplay of light.
参加者が私一人だったのに、快くガイドしていただきたくさん屋久島について教えていただきました。
知識も経験も豊富で、しかも感性の豊かな方で、森を堪能することができました。
雨上がりのしっとりした薄暗い苔むす木や岩の神秘の森。ふっと光が斜めに差し込んだ瞬間、浮かび上がる霞のような漂うミスト、苔からは水蒸気がふわふわと立ち上り、生きて呼吸をしているようです。。緑の岩の上に木々の葉が、さやさやと揺れる影を作り、苔に雨の雫が透明な光の玉となって煌めきます。刹那、光のプリズムのいたずらか、雫が赤や蒼の宝石のようにきらきらと輝くのです。
気温や湿度、光の差し加減といった気象条件が織りなす、まさに森からの贈り物のような景色でした。

Thanks to our guide's consideration, we were able to trek without any strain. They communicated the timing for breaks and what to expect on the upcoming course, which helped me mentally prepare for this new place, even though I was confident in my physical stamina.
I was delighted to be able to take satisfying photos at the scenic spots. I believe the timing of my visit played a role, but it wasn't too crowded, allowing for a deeply moving trekking experience while listening to stories about Yakushima and Jomon Sugi.
I brought my familiar gear, which made things stress-free, and I even had enough energy left to summit Mount Miyanoura solo the next day!
Ordering the bento was definitely the right choice. There were no convenience stores or shops nearby where I stayed, and the supermarket 15 minutes away could run out of food depending on the time of day if you didn't go before the evening.
It was a strange experience to see the many expressions of Yakusugi, feeling as if I were in the sea despite being in the mountains. I would love to participate again with my family next time.
担当ガイドさんのご配慮で無理なくトレッキングが出来ました。休憩のタイミングや今後のコースの様子を伝えてくださり、体力に自信はありましたが初めて向かう場所への心の準備ができました。
見どころの場所では、満足のいく写真を撮って頂けて嬉しかったです。
参加した時期もあるとは思いますが、そこまで混雑せず屋久島や縄文杉にまつわるお話を聴きながらとても感慨深くトレッキング出来ました。
自分の使い慣れた装備を持って行ったのでストレスなく、むしろ体力余って
翌日ソロで宮之浦岳も登頂できました笑
またお弁当オーダーして正解でした。宿泊した近隣にコンビニや商店はなく、片道15分のスーパーは夕方前に行かないと時間帯によっては枯渇する食べ物もありました・・
山なのに海の中にいるかのような屋久杉の沢山の表情を見れたのは不思議な体験でした。
今度は家族で参加したいです。

I felt reassured by the prior phone contact. There were plenty of breaks, and although there were tough moments along the way, I ended up walking comfortably and enjoying it. We were blessed with good weather; if it had rained, I think the trolley path covered in cedar would have been slippery and would have consumed a lot of energy.
事前の電話連絡もあって安心でした。休憩も多く、途中でつらい時もあったけど終わってみたら無理なく楽しく歩けました。天気に恵まれたことは大きく、雨だったら杉を貼ったトロッコ道が滑って、体力を相当消耗するのではないかと思います。

I arrived at Yakushima in the morning. My body is still getting used to it, and I'm not good at tough mountain climbing, so I chose the half-day course here. The guide, Mr. Wakamatsu, is probably older and it's clear that he is relied upon by many fellow guides. He is a kind and experienced guide who maintains a good sense of distance. Even though we didn't go all the way to Taiko Mountain, I was sufficiently healed by the forest bathing and negative ions in the mossy forest. Thank you very much!
午前便で屋久島入り。体がまだ慣れていないし、きつい山登りは苦手なので、こちらの半日コースに。ガイドの若松さんはたぶん年長さん、たくさんのガイド仲間さんに頼られているのが良くわかりました。優しくきちんと距離感あるベテランガイド、太鼓山まで行かなくとも苔むすの森までの森林浴とマイナスイオンで充分癒されました。

I was very satisfied with both the guide and the tour content! It was my first solo trip and my first trekking experience, but I was able to return safely⭐︎
I'll leave some notes for reference.
【My Information】
* 26 years old
* I haven't exercised at all since starting work
* I was involved in sports clubs until high school and I love sports
【Reference Information】
- Breakfast and lunch were provided by the accommodation.
- I borrowed three pieces of climbing gear (shoes, rainwear top and bottom, and a backpack).
- I also added the following after confirming by phone:
→ A light (I had a handheld light, but I think a headlamp would be better for climbing as it keeps your hands free. The usage time isn't long, but since it's a mountain path, I thought it would be better for beginners to have both hands available♪)
→ A trekking pole (I hardly used this. It depends on personal preference, but I found it easier to maintain balance and move by using my hands to climb and descend. I think it's better for those who are concerned about their knees.)
- I climbed on a sunny day in November, and since it got hot and cold, I wore clothes that allowed for temperature regulation (a thin down jacket under the rainwear, a long-sleeve T-shirt, and Montbell's medium-thick Geoline underneath). For the bottom, I wore long tights that I used in sports clubs under the rainwear.
- There was one toilet at the trailhead and two along the way. I didn't use a portable toilet, but I brought one as a precaution.
- I was advised to bring a folding umbrella.
- Having snacks like chocolate or candy can help distract you. I was very hungry on the way back.
【Things to Bring Next Time】
- A smartphone shoulder strap (I wanted to take pictures, but I was worried about dropping my phone, so I think it would be good to have one.)
- A headlamp
ガイドさんもツアー内容も大満足でした!
初一人旅、初トレッキングでしたが無事に帰ってこれました⭐︎
参考までにメモを残します。
【私の情報】
※26歳
※社会人になってから運動は全くしてません
※高校まで部活漬けで、スポーツ好きです
【参考情報】
・朝ごはんとお昼ご飯は宿泊先で用意してもらいました
・登山用品3点借りました
(シューズ・レインウェア上下・ザック)
・さらに確認の電話で下記を追加しました
→ライト(手持ちのライトでしたが、ヘッドライトの方が登る時に手を塞がず良いと思います。使用時間は長くはないですが、山道なので初心者は両手が空いてる方がより良いと思いました♪)
→ストック(これはほとんど使ってません。好みによりますが、手を使って登り降りする方が私はバランスが取れて動きやすかったです。膝が不安な人はあった方が良いと思います。)
・11月の晴れの日に登り、暑くなったり寒くなったりするので温度調節のできる服装でいきました。(上はレインウェアの下に薄手のダウンの下に長袖Tシャツ、その下はモンベルのジオライン中厚手)
(下はレインウェアの下に部活で使っていたロングタイツ)
・トイレは登山口に1箇所、登ってる途中に2箇所ありました。携帯用トイレは使わなかったですが、お守りとして持って行ってました。
・折り畳み傘は持って行くように言われます。
・チョコや飴などあると気が紛れます。帰りにお腹がとてもすきます。
【次行くなら持って行くもの】
・スマホショルダー(写真を撮りたいけど、落としそうで怖いというスポットしかないのであった方がいいと思いました。)

On the first day, we trekked to Jomon Sugi, and on the second day, we explored Shiratani Unsuikyo. I had very little mountain climbing experience, so I was quite anxious about my physical stamina, but my excitement outweighed my worries, and I had an incredible experience without any hardships.
The journey to Jomon Sugi started in complete darkness, but as the sky gradually brightened, the sight of the majestic Yakusugi and the sense of achievement upon reaching Jomon Sugi made me truly feel that it was worth coming here!
Shiratani Unsuikyo had many rocky areas and steep inclines, but the greenery of the moss and the beautiful streams were stunning, and the view from Taiko Rock was breathtaking. I would love to visit again in a different season.
Both days, our guide was very kind, and we had a great time.
1日目は縄文杉、2日目は白谷雲水峡の連日のトレッキング。
ほとんど登山経験がなかったため、体力的にもかなり不安でしたが、楽しみの方が勝り、辛い思いなどなく、とても素晴らしい体験ができました。
縄文杉は、出発は真っ暗な時間からですが、だんだん空が明るくなってくる景色や、迫力のある屋久杉、縄文杉に到着したときの達成感、本当に来て良かった〜!と思いました。
白谷雲水峡は、岩場が多く、傾斜もキツかったですが、苔などの緑や沢がとてもキレイで、太鼓岩での眺めは絶景でした。
また違う季節にも来てみたいですね。
両日とも、ガイドさんもとても親切な方で、楽しく過ごせました。

Since I was staying in the Miyanoura area, I had a pickup at 4 AM and arrived at the Arakawa Trailhead at 5:40 AM. After having breakfast, we departed at 6:15 AM. We did some warm-up exercises as instructed by our guide. There were some tours that started trekking without warm-up exercises, but thanks to these warm-ups, we finished without any injuries. The Jomon Sugi trekking included several breaks along the way, and we returned to the Arakawa Trailhead at 3:45 PM. I was also happy that the guide took photos along the way and shared them with us via LINE at the end. It was tough due to the heavy rain, but it became a great memory!

I participated with my wife and four relatives. On the day of the trip, we were picked up at our inn at 4:30 AM and set off. Unfortunately, the weather was terrible, almost pouring rain, but I changed my mindset and embraced the rain of Yakushima.
I was surprised by the fast pace of the walk on the tramway! At first, I was unsure whether to hire a guide, but I realized that without this pace, we wouldn't be able to make the round trip on the day trip to Jomon Sugi, which gave me reassurance about signing up for the tour.
Miraculously, by the time we reached the Wilson stump, the weather cleared up, and we were able to see the beautiful blue sky through the heart-shaped hole of the Wilson stump.
With the wonderful escort of our guide, Horikita, we spent an amazing time over the course of 11 hours and a distance of 22 kilometers with our group of four in their 60s.
I am truly grateful for the great emotional experience, all thanks to our guide. Thank you very much.
妻と親戚夫婦4人で参加しました。
当日は朝4時半に民宿まで迎えにきてもらって、出発。
当日はあいにくの土砂降りに近い悪天候でしたが、屋久島の雨を導いたと気分を変えて挑みました。

縄文杉までの道のりは決して楽なものではありませんでしたが、ツアーガイドさんの温かな計らいで、ツアー中も飽きることなく、1人でも安心して最大限に楽しむことが出来ました。感謝です!

I was able to form a group with just one participant, which made it exciting. The path wasn't too difficult, and having explanations provided was fantastic.
一人参加の人だけでグループを組んでもらえたので盛り上がりました。
道も厳しくなく、解説をしてもらえるので最高でした。

I usually play tennis and have hardly ever done mountain climbing, so at 68 years old, I had no confidence at all about completing 22 kilometers. Nevertheless, I signed up with a tennis friend. To avoid inconveniencing others, we requested a private guide and thought that if it became too difficult, we could just turn back.
As soon as we started walking, it began to pour rain, and walking in unfamiliar shoes while trying not to slip was quite nerve-wracking. Along the way, we listened to various explanations and took photos, and after walking more than 8 kilometers on the trolley path, suddenly the rain stopped, and it became clear. The surroundings sparkled, revealing a wonderful view.
After that, we faced a rather challenging climb over rocks, but we desperately ascended toward the goal of Jomon Sugi. When we finally reached the goal, I felt a sense of achievement that I hadn't experienced in decades, and confidence surged within me.
However, the return was more difficult than I had expected, and I became anxious about whether I could make it back, my legs shaking. But while listening to the guide's experiences and fun stories, when we made it in time for the 5 PM bus, I truly felt like we had accomplished something remarkable, and we three shared in the joy.
I am very grateful to our guide, Iwakawa, for teaching me the joy of mountain climbing, and I plan to take on new challenges again.
普段、テニスをやっているというだけで、山登りなどをほとんどした事がない上に、68才という歳で22キロを完歩できるのか全く、自信がないままテニス仲間と2人で、申し込みました。他の人に迷惑かけないように、2人のプライベートガイドを頼み、もし、無理なら、途中で戻ればいいぐらいのきもちでした。
歩き出してすぐに、土砂降りになり、履き慣れない靴で、滑らないように歩くのは、緊張感がありました。途中、色々と説明を聞いたり、写真を撮っていただきながら、トロッコ道を8キロ以上歩いた頃に、突然、雨が上がって快晴になり、辺りがキラキラと輝いて素晴らしい景色が現れました。
この後、石をよじ登りながらのかなりハードな、登りになりましたが、縄文杉のゴール目指して、必死にのぼり、ゴールに辿りついた時は、ここ何十年も感じた事のない、達成感に満ち、自信まで、湧いてきました。
しかし、帰りは、思った以上に大変で、足もガクガクし帰りつくか、不安になりましたが、ガイドの方の経験談や、楽しい話を聞きながら、目標の5時のバスに間に合った時は、本当に快挙を成し遂げた気持ちとホッとした気持ちで、3人で、喜び合いました。
山登りの楽しさを教えてくれた、ガイドの岩川さんにとても感謝し、また、新たなる挑戦を計画しようと思っています。
Thank you for participating in our tour.
The blue sky that emerged after the heavy rain in the morning on the day of the tour is an unforgettable experience, isn't it? It was truly a weather change that felt like hope emerging from despair.
I believe the descent was quite challenging, but I was very happy that we were able to complete the tour as scheduled thanks to your efforts. Please continue to take on new challenges inspired by your climbing experience in Yakushima!
Thank you for joining us.
この度は当社ツアーへのご参加ありがとうございました。
ツアー当日午前中に降った大雨からのあの青空は忘れられない経験になりますよね!
まさに絶望から希望が開けた様な天気でした。
下山はとても大変だったと思いますが、お客様の頑張りで無事に予定通りツアーを終える事が出来てとても嬉しかったです。
屋久島の登山をきっかけにこれからもどんどん新しい事に挑戦してくださいね!
ご参加ありがとうございました。

We were blessed with great weather and a wonderful guide, making for a smooth and amazing Jomon Sugi trekking experience✨✨ My sister, who visited Yakushima for the first time, was also able to meet Jomon Sugi and was incredibly moved. Thank you so much!
天気にも恵まれガイドさんにも恵まれて全てがスムーズに運び、最高の縄文杉トレッキングになりました✨✨初屋久島の妹も無事に縄文杉に会えて超感動してました
本当にありがとうございました
Thank you for participating in our tour!
This was your third time visiting Jomon Sugi, right?
It's rare for even heavy repeaters who are well-versed in Yakushima to climb Jomon Sugi three times!
We look forward to your fourth visit!
この度は当社ツアーへのご参加ありがとうございました!
三度目の縄文杉だったんですね!
屋久島通のヘビーリピーターさんでも3度も縄文杉に登られた方は珍しいです!
時間4度目もお待ちしています!!

The shuttle service was very helpful, especially when I was sleepy in the early morning and exhausted after trekking. It was mentioned that we could sleep on the bus to the destination, but in reality, there was a roll call for group division, so I couldn't relax much. The guide only explained the bare minimum, which was a bit unsatisfying, but still, he adjusted the pace while observing the seven of us, allowing us to finally see the Jomon Sugi. However, I wished he had paid attention to the way the man in front was holding his trekking poles, as they nearly hit the heads and bodies of those behind him multiple times. Although I usually lack exercise and suddenly took on this trekking challenge, I was healed by the great outdoors, gained confidence from walking for 10 hours, and had a truly valuable experience. Thank you very much.
早朝眠い中とトレッキング後のクタクタの中、送迎付きはとても助かりました。
行きのバスの中では寝ててOKと記載がされていましたが、実際はグループ分けの点呼がされておりあまりゆっくり出来ませんでした。
ガイドさんは必要最低限のことしか説明しない感じの人で少し物足りませんでしたが、それでも私を含め7人の様子を見ながらペース配分をして下さり念願の縄文杉を見ることが出来ました。
ただ、前を歩いていた男性のストックの持ち方が後方の人の頭や体に何度も当たりそうになったので注意をして欲しかったです。
普段運動不足でいきなり臨んだトレッキングでしたが大自然で癒され、10時間歩けたという自信にもなりとても貴重な経験が出来ました。
ありがとうございました。

The day before, I anticipated being tired from trekking Jomon Sugi, so I signed up for the afternoon tour. As a result, this turned out to be a great choice. I was picked up at 12:30 PM, which allowed me to have lunch first. Our guide, Y, had an astonishing amount of experience and had even served as the head of the tourism association. Although it was a coincidence, he taught us not only about the mountains and plants but also about the history of Yakushima becoming a natural heritage site and the background of the mossy forest's name, which was very educational.
It seems that many people hike in the morning, so there were only a few of us in the afternoon, allowing us to enjoy each spot quietly. The team consisted of just me and one other person, and Y was very attentive to our footing while we climbed, making it very comfortable.
Additionally, Y was great at taking photos and captured some wonderful angles. When we spotted monkeys on the way, he even stopped the car so we could take pictures. I really appreciated his thoughtfulness.
It was unusual for Yakushima to have no rain at all, so the moss was a bit lacking in vitality, but that made the climb easier, and I had a fun half-day.
前日、縄文杉トレッキングで疲れが予想で来たので、午後からのツアーに申し込みました。結果としてこれが当たりました。午後12時半の迎えで、先に昼食を済ませることができました。ガイドさんはびっくりするほど経験年数の長い、観光協会の長もされていたという経歴のYさん。偶然とはいえ、山や植物のことだけでなく、屋久島が自然遺産になる経緯や苔むす森の名前の背景を教えてくれて、とても勉強になりました。
やはり午前中に登る人たちが多いようで、午後から登るのは少数派らしく、それぞれのスポットでは静かに過ごせました。チームは私ともう一人だけで、Yさんは私たちの足にすごく注意しながら登ってくれたので、とても楽でした。
またYさんは写真も上手で、とてもいいアングルで撮ってくださいました。行きの道中で猿が出たときはわざわざ車を止めて写真を撮らせてくれました。気遣い感謝です。
珍しくずっと雨のない屋久島で苔は少し元気がなかったですが、その分楽に登れましたし、楽しい半日を過ごせました。

The guide was very knowledgeable, sharing various trivia about plants, natural phenomena, and culture, which was helpful and enjoyable. I thought the guide, who was in their 70s, was very energetic and dedicated to their work. They also took great photos at the rest spots, which turned out to be very special. Thank you!
Shiratani Unsuikyo is shorter in duration compared to the Yakusugi tour and is not physically demanding, so I recommend it for those who want to enjoy Yakushima's nature without spending as much time as the Yakusugi tour.
ガイドさんが博識な方で、植物や自然現象、文化のことなど、様々な豆知識を交えてお話して下さったのが、参考になり楽しかったです。
70代のガイドさんで、とてもお元気で仕事熱心な方だと思いました。
また、休憩スポットなどで写真を撮影してくれたのですが、撮り方がとても上手く、大切な写真となりました。ありがとうございました!
白谷雲水峡は、屋久杉のツアーよりも時間も短めで、体力的にもつらくないので、屋久杉ほど時間をかけたくないけど屋久島の自然を楽しみたいという方には、白谷雲水峡をお勧めします。

After picking up the rental items at Yakushima Airport, I planned to have lunch before heading to the designated location, but the flight was delayed. After borrowing shoes and other items, there was no time to eat, and I couldn't find a convenience store, so I thought I would have to trek on an empty stomach. However, they kindly informed me of a pharmacy within walking distance and came to pick me up there.
While eating the bread I bought at the pharmacy in the car, we headed to the entrance of Shiratani Unsuikyo. From there, I walked a lot in the great outdoors for the first time in a while. I learned about the cedar trees and various other things, and thanks to the guide's explanations, I had a very enjoyable half-day.
There were some paths with significant elevation changes, and there were members in our group who were not used to mountain trails, but the guide provided some explanations to help us progress slowly and comfortably, making the walk pleasant and enjoyable.
On the way back, they dropped me off at my accommodation, and my checked suitcase and shoes were delivered there. They also came to pick up the rental items afterward, which was incredibly helpful. I am grateful for the wonderful time and the warm personalities of everyone involved. Thank you very much.
屋久島空港でレンタル品を受け取った後、お昼を食べてから指定の場所へ行く予定でしたが、飛行機が遅れ、靴などを借りた後に食べに行く時間がないし、コンビニも見当たらないし、空腹でトレッキングか、と思いましたが、徒歩圏内の薬局を教えてくださり、そこまで迎えに来てくださいました。
薬局で買ったパンなどを車中で食べながら、白谷雲水峡の入り口へ。
そこからは、久しぶりに大自然の中をたくさん歩きました。
杉の木や色々ご案内いただき、ガイドさんの解説のおかげでとても楽しい半日を過ごしました。
一部、段差の大きい道があり、グループの中に山道は不慣れな方がいらっしゃいましたが、ゆっくり一歩一歩進める様にちょっと解説入れてくださったりして、和やかに楽しく歩きました。
帰りは宿泊先まで送ってくださり、預けたスーツケースや靴などは宿泊先に届けてあり、その後に借りたレンタル品は宿まで引き取りに来てくださって、至れり尽くせりで本当に助かりました。
素敵な時間と温かい人柄の皆さんに感謝しています。
ありがとうございました。
