During this immersive experience, our expert guide will lead you through Samegai-juku, where you'll uncover the secrets of this historical village. You'll visit the local shrine and temple, nestled near a pristine spring that feeds a crystal-clear stream running through the heart of the community. Indulge in the flavors of the region with a delectable, locally sourced lunch at a traditional ryotei restaurant – don't forget to inquire about our vegetarian options if that's your preference. Following lunch, we'll embark on a picturesque 4 km walk to Kaminyu, a hidden gem nestled in a tranquil mountain valley.
