Overview

Walking the ancient Kumano Kodo is a fantastic way to experience the unique cultural landscape of Kumano spiritual countryside. Join our tour, Private guide will walk around Kumano Kodo with you.

Highlights

Daimon-zaka is an impressive cobblestone staircase slope which runs from the base of the valley to Kumano Nachi Taisha, Seiganto-ji Temple and Nachi waterfall. It is lined with centuries-old Japanese cedars (cryptomeria), cypress, camphor trees and bamboo groves. Daimon-zaka means “large gate slope” referring to a gate that once stood nearby. This is an excellent short walk on the Kumano Kodo pilgrimage route
The actual stone staircase is about 600 meters long with 267 stairs. At the base of the slope is the impressive Meitosugi – “husband and wife cedar trees,” whose roots are entwined beneath the path
At the top of Daimon-zaka, you can continue upstairs another 20 minutes to the shrine complex area and visit Kumano Nachi Taisha, Seiganto-Ji Temple. It is probably best to climb the stairs to the shrine grounds first and then walk down beside the pagoda to the falls
