[1 hour from the city center] A relaxing half-day trip to Mt. Takao ⛰️ report

#AbsolutelyFreeTrip 💞Reasons why we recommend it: For those who live in Shinjuku or along the Keio Line and want to relax and enjoy nature!! It's especially recommended for those who want to enjoy nature and get rid of their daily fatigue. You can enjoy it as a day trip, and it's also a great way to get rid of your lack of exercise🙆♀️ It's a place that's highly recommended for those who love temples and shrines and food🩵💚 📍Location: Takao-cho, Hachioji-shi, Tokyo Recommended route for beginners ① Pray for a safe climb at Hikawa Shrine, which is close to Takao-sanguchi Station! ② It's a 5-10 minute walk from Takao-sanguchi Station to the cable car station. It costs about 1,000 yen round trip/adult, and you can use the lift or cable car (both are the same price)🚠! I used the lift on the way there and the cable car on the way back! 💨 (The cable car on the way back was a thrilling experience with a steep slope!) ③ Climb the mountain on Route 1, the easiest route for beginners. Along the way, there are many sightseeing spots and gourmet spots such as Yakuoin Temple, a dumpling shop, and a soba restaurant, so you can climb without any difficulty☺️ There is also a beer garden, so it's great to have a drink🍺 on your way back💓 ④ Enjoy the view from the summit!! If you were physically able to take Route 1 on the way there, you can return on Route 2 or Route 4🙆♀️ However, there are many places where the road is narrower and steeper than Route 1, so be careful not to fall or get injured! 🌟Finally🌟 There are several water stations and vending machines in front of Takao-sanguchi Station and along the climbing route. Therefore, we recommend that you drink plenty of water and drink it frequently! It's best to wear comfortable sneakers and clothes👍 Recommended foods are Tengu-yaki and tororo soba! The dumplings are also delicious🍡 Please enjoy mountain climbing at one of Japan's famous low mountain climbing spots🍀🍀🍀
