for the "hiking in Japan," today we have devoted our attention, but especially our legs and our lungs, in addition to the five senses and to our surprise, the Takao san.
This mountain, 599 meters high and 30 cm (oh, 'sti Japanese are accurate, there is little to do ...) and whose peak offers a magnificent view despite the clouds, is located at outskirts of Tokyo, and is the ideal place for a quick trip away from the concrete metropolis.
At the base of a series of hiking trails that come on top of it snaking through the forest that surrounds its slopes. We have chosen to climb the number 6, which shows you see in the picture below.
Apart from the initial stretch of paved road, everything else was in the valley of a stream, sometimes right in his bed, between tall trees and steep walls covered with moss. Visiting these places is now captures the essence of Japanese religion, it is hard to believe that such large trees are not of gods but only living beings.
At the top and ate a quick meal in the company of a surly Japanese trekkers, we walked to the back, but choosing a different path. Along this
the divine that was in the air was manifested in the form of visions, not the usual Japanese mini-skirts and heels from 6 cm even on the dirt road (that was on top ...), but even clerical workers in a black overcoat, jacket, tie, leather shoes, umbrella and 24 hours seemed to just come down from the underground ...
Just these strange visions ... It must have been tired?
soon!
