This hiking tour in Kyoto lasts about three hours and is led by a MagicalTrip certified guide. The walk begins near Tofuku-ji Temple and follows a quiet, less-traveled path into Fushimi Inari-taisha Shrine. Instead of entering through the main gate, the route passes through a natural bamboo forest and visits a small Inari shrine that is rarely seen by visitors. The trail continues along a narrow mountain path, offering a peaceful view of Fushimi Inari away from the crowds. After spending around 30 minutes exploring the shrine area, the hike proceeds to the top of the mountain where Fushimi Momoyama Castle can be seen. The castle was originally built by Hideyoshi and rebuilt by Ieyasu, and the area became known as Momoyama after peach trees were planted during the Genroku era. The total distance covered is approximately 7 kilometers, requiring some physical effort with occasional stops. Tour photos are provided during the hike. Drinks and food are not included. Good-grip shoes are necessary due to potentially slippery ground. Long sleeves and pants are recommended to protect against insects. Some parts of the route are not accessible to wheelchairs or strollers. During summer, it is advisable to bring water and a hat to avoid heat-related issues. A private tour option is available.
