Sacred Mountain Hike to Cliffside Temples

Looking for an authentic, mindful retreat away from the hustle and bustle of the city? Just 77 minutes from Tokyo, enjoy visiting historic pilgrimage temples in Chichibu. With a history spanning nearly 800 years, the Chichibu Fudasho Pilgrimage connects 34 Buddhist temples scattered across a single mountain basin. Among them, Temples No. 31 and 32 are particularly special, tucked away deep in the mountains. Enjoy scenic hikes along ancient pilgrimage trails and up to a remote sanctuary. Leave the stresses of everyday life behind and reconnect with yourself through mindful walking, surrounded by the peace and beauty of nature. For your safety and comfort, please wear comfortable, non-slip walking shoes. An experienced mountain hiking specialist will accompany the tour alongside your English-speaking guide. Important: If rain or muddy trail conditions make the hike unsafe, the hike to the remote sanctuary at Temple No. 32 will be replaced with a walking tour of the local town.
