It was a three-day trip to Yakushima starting from Marine Day in July! On the second day, I wanted to fully enjoy the nature of Yakushima and considered joining the Jomon Sugi tour, but I wasn't confident in my physical strength or stamina, so I participated in the shorter Shiratani Unsuikyo and Taiko Rock tour.
The tour we joined started early in the morning, so we were able to return by lunchtime and could even participate in activities on the final day. We were very satisfied as we could effectively use our time in the afternoon.
Taiko Rock was our final destination, but there were many attractions along the way, and the guide made regular stops for breaks, allowing us to enjoy the tour even though we usually lack exercise. The guide was a local born in Yakushima, with extensive knowledge of the mountains and plants, and also shared information about delicious local restaurants. They were well-versed in Studio Ghibli as well and pointed out various spots that reminded us of anime characters.
I highly recommend this tour for anyone wanting to visit both Jomon Sugi and Shiratani Unsuikyo, or for those who want to make the most of their final day! It was a fantastic tour with a great guide, and we were very satisfied!
7月の海の日から3日間の屋久島旅行でした!
2日目に屋久島の自然を満喫することをしようと思い、縄文杉ツアーを検討していたのですが体力、気力ともに自信がなく、歩く時間の短い白谷雲水峡・太鼓岩ツアーに参加。
私達が参加したツアーは、早朝スタートだったのでお昼には帰ってこれて、最終日に参加することもできるとのこと…
私達も午後からの時間を有効に使うことが出来て大満足^ ^
太鼓岩が最終目的地ですが、途中沢山の見所があり、定期的に休憩も取ってくださるので普段運動不足の私達でも楽しんで参加することができました。
ガイドの方は、屋久島生まれの方で山や植物の知識も豊富ですが地元の美味しいお店などについても詳しく教えてくださいます。
ジブリについても詳しく、色々な場所でアニメのキャラクターを彷彿とさせるポイントを教えて下さいます(*⁰▿⁰*)
縄文杉と白谷雲水峡どちらも行ってみたい方や、最終日まで満喫したい方などに大変オススメのツアーです!
とっても良いガイドさんで、大満足のツアーでした!

The trekking guided by the old man to the Forest of Mononoke was amazing. The healing forest with Yakusugi trees, the lush plants like ferns and moss, and the sight of monkeys, deer, snakes, and small birds right in front of me were all incredible. I filled my water bottle with cold stream water and spring water—what a refreshing experience! Everything I saw felt like a different world. It turned out to be a very satisfying trip to Yakushima. By the way, I’m also an old man (laughs). The next day, I was left with the pleasant aftereffects of muscle soreness all over my body, making it a memorable journey.
もののけの森までガイドのじっちゃんに案内されて最高のトレッキングでした。屋久杉をはじめとする癒される森林、シダ、コケなどの植物群生、サル、シカ、ヘビ、小鳥などを目の前に見たり、冷たい沢水、湧き水を水筒に汲んでゴクリ!見るものすべて別世界でした。大満足の屋久島になりました。ちなみに私もじいさんです(笑)、次の日は全身の筋肉痛の余韻!?で気持ちいい思い出の旅になりました。

While looking at various tour reviews, I participated again with Veltra. The actual guide was a person named W from Kumage Transport, which is commissioned by Michi no Eki Kankou. When we arrived on the island, we were supposed to make a confirmation call, and the guide was supposed to call us the day before, but I was in the mountains until late in the evening the day before, so I couldn't connect. Just when I was worried about what to do, the guide kindly called the accommodation directly and connected us.
The guide W who came on the day was quite elderly, which made me a bit anxious, but that worry was unfounded. He had incredible leg strength, knowledge about plants, endurance, a wonderful personality, and a wealth of information about nature and the culture of Yakushima, making it feel like I was walking with a "sage." He patiently taught us, city dwellers who usually don't hike (in our 30s and 60s), how to walk, how to exert ourselves, and how to use trekking poles. (I apologize for thinking he was elderly! We were lacking in every aspect compared to him...)
His personality was very flexible and warm, and his laughter, "ho ho ho," truly resembled that of a "sage."
Now that I'm back and writing this, I want to go into the mountains with W again. I had never done trekking before, but I truly had an amazing experience. I am sincerely grateful.
様々なツアーの評価を見ながら今回もveltraさんで参加しました。実際のガイドさんは道の駅観光さん(が委託している熊毛運輸さん?)のWさんという方でした。島についたら確認電話をし、前日にガイドから確認電話がくるというものでしたが、前日夕方遅くまで山にいたため、電話は繋がらず。どうしようと困っていたらガイドさんが宿に直接電話をかけて繋いでくださり助かりました。
当日いらしたガイドのWさんはかなりご高齢の方で少し不安になりましたが、そんな不安なんのその。とんでもない脚力、植物の情報力、持久力、お人柄、自然への情報量、そして屋久島という島の文化などまるで「仙人」と歩いているような感覚でした。普段山を歩かない都会っ子の我々(30代と60代)にも丁寧に歩き方や力の入れ方、ストックの使い方を教えてくださいました。(ご高齢!なんて思って申し訳ありません!私たちの方が全てにおいて劣りすぎていました。。)
お人柄も非常に柔軟で温かく、「ほっほっほ」と笑う笑い方はまさに「仙人様」でした笑。
今、帰ってきて、これを書いていますが、またWさんと山に入りたいです。トレッキングなんてしたことのない私でしたが、本当に本当に素晴らしい経験をさせていただきました。心から感謝します。

I was worried to hear that it was closed due to heavy rain on the day the rainy season started, but the next day I was truly healed by the beautiful moss and forest after the rain cleared up. There was also light rain!
I apologize and thank you for accommodating my various requests regarding the shuttle service. Your flexible response was very helpful.
One thing I thought of is that even if you contact the tour company with details in advance, it doesn't necessarily mean that the guide on the day is aware of that information (or has received the message), so it's better to communicate it again. Of course, they say to inform the guide, but that doesn't alleviate our concerns until the day before, which made me think, "Hmm."
梅雨入りの日は大雨のため閉鎖だったと聞いて心配していましたが、翌日は雨上がりの綺麗な苔と森が見られて本当に癒されました。小雨も降りましたしね!
送迎については色々とワガママを聞いてくださりすみません&ありがとうございました。
柔軟に対応いただき助かりました。
ひとつ思ったのは、事前にツアー会社に細かいことを連絡していても、当日のガイドさんがその内容を把握している(連絡を受けている)とは限らないので、改めて伝えたほうがよいです。もちろん、ガイドに伝えてくださいとは言われますが、それだと前日までこちらの心配事が解消されないので、うーん、と思ってしまいました。

The Shiratani Unsuikyo itself is wonderful, and I was moved by the nature of Yakushima, a UNESCO World Heritage site. However, my honest opinion is that it would have suited our family better to go on our own rather than relying on this tour company.
Initially, I was unaware that the tour company, rental company, and guide were separate organizations. From my perspective, I assumed that all the information I provided through Veltra was being coordinated.
However, when I contacted the guide the day before, I found out that our return flight time had not been communicated, and we had to hastily move up the meeting time.
We also rented some gear, but since that was with a different company, I managed to contact them directly the day before to ensure it arrived on time. However, the rental items were delivered after 8:00 PM the night before, and the rental company instructed us to return them to the guide, but the guide said they could not accept them.
Regarding the guide, since they operate independently, I believe there are individual differences, but the person assigned to our family had low hospitality and looked down on us as beginners in hiking. The explanations were minimal, and despite having a child in elementary school, they proceeded at their own pace without taking sufficient breaks, resulting in a significantly shortened return trip. (Due to the weather and the child's walking speed, we could not reach Taiko Rock.)
So, my straightforward opinion is that it would have been better to explore at our own pace.
白谷雲水峡自体は素晴らしく、世界遺産屋久島の自然に感動しました。
但し、こちらのツアー会社に頼むことはなく、自力で行くほうが私たちの家族には合っていたというのが正直な感想です。
当初は、ツアー会社・レンタル会社・ガイドさんがそれぞれ別の組織であることを知りませんでした。こちらからすればVeltra経由でお伝えした情報は全て連携されているという前提で考えていました。
ところが、実際前日になり、ガイドさんと連絡をとったところ、こちらの帰りの飛行機の時間が伝わっておらず、集合時間を急遽早めることになりました。
またグッズのレンタルをしたのですが、こちらも別会社ということで、前日にこちらから連絡を直接とってなんとか間に合いましたが、前日の20:00過ぎにレンタル品が届くという形でしたし、レンタル会社にはガイドさんに返却するように言われたのですが、ガイドさんからは受け取れないという返事でした。
ガイドさんに関しても、基本的には個人でやられているということで、これは個人差があるのだと思いますが、私たち家族の担当の方はホスピタリティが低く、登山初心者の私たちをどこか見下した態度でした。解説は最低限で、小学校低学年の子供がいるにもかかわらず、自分のペースでどんどん進んでしまい、休憩も十分に取らないまま、予定を大幅に短縮しての帰還になりました。(天候と子供の歩くスピードの関係で太鼓岩に行けませんでした。)
ということで、それであれば自分たちのペースでゆっくり回れば良かったというのが率直な感想です。

I participated in the Jomon Sugi trekking the day before, so I was sore all over, but surprisingly, once I started walking, my body moved well. Sunlight filtering through the mossy forest. After climbing a bit more in the somewhat dark mossy forest, the view suddenly opened up, and the green scenery spread out, with a pleasant breeze. We departed at 8:40 and returned by 2:30 PM. When we arrived at Taiko Rock, the guide told us we had plenty of time, so we were able to relax. We had lunch on the way down, and the instant miso soup the guide made was delicious! I would love to visit again in a different season. Thank you for your help.

I really wanted to go to Taiko Rock, but since I hiked Jomon Sugi the day before, I ended up on a half-day tour. That's the only regret I have. The guide was fun and made the experience easy. I hope to challenge Taiko Rock again next year.
When you order a tour through a travel agency, you get grouped with other people, but if you order directly online here, it seems like they take you in smaller groups. It was very good.
本当は太鼓岩まで行きたかったのですが、前日縄文杉登山をしたので時間的に半日で終わるツアーになってしまいた。これだけが残念で心残りです。ガイドさんも楽しく難なく行って来れました。また来年にでも太鼓岩に挑戦したいと思います。

I was worried about being able to walk since I hadn't been exercising much, but the veteran guide (an experienced and energetic senior guide) provided breaks at just the right moments and points, allowing us to enjoy the entire journey.
After our lunch break, we were taken to some highlights that weren't on the original course, which made me very satisfied. (I believe the guide assessed our stamina and remaining time to make these decisions.)
If I had walked on my own, I wouldn't have been able to pace myself or learn about the origins of the sights, so I'm really glad I joined the tour.
On the day I participated, the weather was so clear that even the guide was surprised, and we took many memorable photos at the famous spots.
On the way back, as the guide mentioned, we were able to see monkeys.
Next, I want to join the Jomon Sugi course.
普段たいした運動をしていなかったので歩けるか不安でしたがベテランガイドさん(知識と経験豊富なバリバリ元気な最年長のベテランガイドさんでした)が絶妙なタイミングとポイントで休憩も兼ねて止って案内をして下さったので全行程を楽しく歩く事が出来ました。
お昼休憩後に時間があるからとコースに入っていない見どころにも案内して頂けて大満足でした。(体力や残り時間を判断して案内して下さるのだと思います)
個人で歩くとペース配分もできず見どころの由来も知らないままの1日だったと思うとツアーに参加して本当に良かったです。
参加した日はガイドさんも驚くほどの晴天で名所では写真も写してくださり記念がたくさん残りました。
帰路ではガイドさんがおっしゃる通りお猿に会うことが出来ました。
次は縄文杉コースに参加したいです。

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.

This was my first time at Shiratani Unsuikyo. I was unsure about the path and considered hiring a guide, but I also worried that joining a guided tour would mean having to match the pace of others and that I might not be able to take photos freely. I struggled with these thoughts quite a bit. However, in the end, hiring a guide turned out to be a great success.
Our guide, Watanabe, was knowledgeable not only about the mountains but also about plants, and he explained everything in a fun way, mixing in jokes. We were laughing the whole time, to the point where other groups commented, "You all look like you're having so much fun!"
He also taught us photo spots and tips for enjoying the experience, so we were able to capture some Instagram-worthy shots. Additionally, having the guide meant we could get group photos taken, which was a nice touch.
The breaks were well-timed and informative, allowing even a beginner like me to reach Taiko Rock.
I thought I wouldn’t get lost, but there was still snow from a few days prior, making it difficult to walk, and the path was hard to follow. On the day of our visit, there was a woman who had come alone and got lost, and the guide helped her. I really think it's better for those unfamiliar with the mountains to hire a guide.
For lunch, we were treated to warm miso soup and coffee. I was truly grateful to learn that they carried all the hot water and mats for everyone.
If we had climbed on our own, we would have missed many spots, and we might have been exhausted on the snowy path that appeared midway.
It felt more like having a companion to walk with rather than just a guide. They also shared recommendations for sightseeing spots for the next day, and I’m really glad I decided to hire them.
今回、初めての白谷雲水峡。道もわからないし、ガイド頼もうかな?という気持ちと、ガイドツアーに参加しちゃうと、他の人にペースを合わせないといけないかな?とか、自由に写真撮れなくなるかな?という不安とで、随分悩みました。
でも結果、頼んで大成功です。
今回担当してくれた渡辺さんは、山の事は勿論、植物も詳しくて、冗談を交えながら楽しく説明してくれました。
私達ずっと笑っていたので、他のグループに
「楽しそうですね〜」
と、言われるほど、、、笑
写真スポットや、その場に合った楽しみ方のコツやポーズも教えてくれるので、今流行りのインスタ映えも撮れちゃいますよ。笑。
また、ガイドさんにお願いできるので、全員揃った写真を撮ってもらえるのも魅力。
休憩は、説明を兼ねて上手に取ってくれるので、初心者の私でも、太鼓岩まで登る事ができました。
また、道に迷うことは無いと思っていましたが、今回数日前に降った雪が残っていて歩きにくかったし、道がわかりにくい状態だったようで、当日も一人で来ていた女性が道に迷っていて、ガイドさんが助けていました。
やはり山に不慣れな方は、頼んだ方が良いと思います。
お昼には、温かい味噌汁とコーヒーをご馳走になりました。
全員分のお湯やシートを担いで、登っていたんだと知り、本当に感謝の気持ちです。
自分達だけで登っていたら、見過ごしたスポットも沢山あっただろうし、途中から出てきた雪道で、グッタリしていたかも?
道案内というよりは、一緒に歩く仲間という感じかもしれません。
次の日の観光スポットも教えてもらって、
頼んで本当に良かったです。

The day after visiting Jomon Sugi, I had to return on the evening flight, so I signed up for an early morning departure to reach Taiko Rock. Since there were only two participants, including myself, they arranged for a 6 AM departure instead of the scheduled 5 AM, allowing us to start just as it was getting light without needing headlamps. There were few people, making it easy to walk.
Although there were many clouds, the sun was shining, and it was a pleasant trek. There is a famous spot called "Mossy Forest," but the entire Shiratani area was a magnificent moss world, not just that particular place. Taiko Rock had a fantastic view, and I felt it was worth coming all the way here. It would be a real shame to turn back at the Mossy Forest, so I highly recommend going all the way to Taiko Rock.
縄文杉の翌日でしたが、夕方便で帰らなければならず、太鼓岩まで行きたかったので早朝出発で申し込みました。
参加者が私ともう一人しかいなかったためか、一応5時出発の予定と書いてありますが、6時出発にアレンジしていただき、ヘッドランプを使わずちょうど明るくなってきたころの出発で、人も少なくて歩きやすかったです。
雲は多かったですが日差しもあり、気持ちの良いトレッキングでした。
「苔むす森」という有名な場所がありますが、特にそこに限らず白谷全体が見事な苔ワールドでした。
太鼓岩はとても見晴らしが良くて、ここまで来てよかったと思える場所でした。
苔むす森で引き返すのは本当にもったいないので、ぜひ太鼓岩まで行ってほしいです。

It was unfortunately rainy, but I finally got to go after wanting to for four years! It would have been even better if it had been sunny, but I still felt the great nature and got to see the scenery that inspired "Princess Mononoke." It was an amazing time! The greatness of Yakushima can only be understood by seeing it in person!
あいにくの雨でしたが、四年間行きたくてようやく行けました!
晴れだともっと最高でしたが、それでも大自然を感じられ、もののけ姫の舞台となった景色も見れて、最高の時間でした!
生でみないとわからない凄さが屋久島にある!!

This is my third time at Shiratani Unsuikyo, but it was my first time trekking in the early morning! Trekking while feeling the fresh greenery of the morning was amazing! The guide was also great, and I thoroughly enjoyed Taiko Rock.
今回白谷雲水峡自体は三回目ですが
早朝トレッキングは初めてでした!
朝の新緑を感じながらのトレッキングは最高でした!
ガイドさんも良い方で
太鼓岩を十分満喫させて頂きました。

I participated in a trekking tour with my 70-year-old mother. I was worried about whether she could keep up and reach Taiko Rock, but the guide was attentive to our pace and provided enjoyable commentary, allowing us to finish the trek happily! My mother was very grateful. The girl who trekked with us was also kind, and we were able to have a fun experience together. Thank you very much!
70歳の母と二人でトレッキングに参加しました。
母がついていけるか太鼓岩まで行けるか心配でしたが、ガイドさんがゆっくりと私たちのペースを見ながら楽しいトークを交えて案内をしていただき楽しくトレッキングを終えられました‼
母がかなり感謝してました✨
一緒にトレッキングしてくれた女の子も優しく、楽しく終えることができました
ありがとうございました‼

I participated in a solo trip. Since I don't usually exercise, I was quite nervous before going. The day after visiting Jomon Sugi, I signed up for the Taiko Rock course. In hindsight, it was the right decision to do it in this order. The Hakusan Unsuikyo is shorter in distance than Jomon Sugi, so it felt easier. The moss-covered forest was absolutely wonderful, and the view from Taiko Rock was breathtaking. Personally, I prefer this course over Jomon Sugi. For those who are unsure about going to Taiko Rock, I definitely think you should go! Also, the guide was very knowledgeable about plants and incredibly kind, and I'm glad I signed up for the tour!
ひとり旅で参加。ふだん運動をしないので行く前からかなりびびってました。縄文杉の次の日に太鼓岩のコースに申し込みました。結果、この順番にして正解でした。白山雲水峡は縄文杉より距離も短いので楽に感じます。苔むす森はとてもすばらしかったです、そして太鼓岩からの景色も圧巻でした。個人的には縄文杉よりも好きなコースです。太鼓岩に行くかどうか迷われている方は、ぜひ太鼓岩まで行った方がいいと思います!あとは、ガイドさんは植物に詳しいとても優しい方で、ツアーに申し込んでよかったなと思いました!
