About us
Welcome to Hiking in Kobe! Are you visiting Kobe and looking for a breath of fresh air? Join us as we explore the beautiful trails of Mt. Rokko, the iconic mountain range that rises right behind the city.
Our hikes are designed for international travelers and locals who want to enjoy nature without the need for heavy gear. Most of our trails are easily accessible from train stations, making it the perfect day trip during your stay in Japan.
Your organizer was born and raised in the Mt. Rokko area. I know these trails like my own backyard and will guide you to secret waterfalls, untouched forests, and "local-only" viewpoints you won't find in any guidebook.
My website is up and running. please check it out.
