The Yakushima Traverse is an incredible hike over rocky peaks and through the centuries old forest of Yakushima.

The Aichi Prefecture Forest makes for a great dayhike from Nagoya. The views of Horai lake are stunning and the trail offers a variety of terrain from rocky ridges with chains to waterfalls and forest trails. Since the elevation is quite low this hike is best for spring and fall to avoid the heat (and the mountain leeches). ⏲︎ Time: 8h ✎ Kanji: 愛知県森林 ⚲ Location: Aichi ↔ Distance: 13km ✮ Difficulty: Intermediate ᨒ Elevation Gain: 1360m ☀ Dayhike ☉ Hiking S
