Location: Yamagata Prefecture
Travel with us to a more traditional and natural Japan as we leave the city life and head north to Yamagata in the Tohoku Region! Here we will hike through sacred mountains and discover the ancient rituals of the Shugendo Yamabushi, the spiritual mountain ascetics of the area. We will soak in the atmosphere and onsen waters of the famous Ginzan Onsen, and top it all off with stays at a hotel and Temple near the foot of Mt Haguro, one of the three sacred mountains in the area. This four-day trip to the mountains of Yamagata is a must for those seeking relaxation, history, and natural beauty!
This event will take place during a weekend + National Holiday + TUJ Holiday so make sure you join us!
