Nyakuoji Shrine
This is the final destination. From here you are free to explore further, go for drinks. Walk along the philosophers' path. I will walk back to the bicycle stand to get my bike. This is very close.

The fee is 1000 yen. Please pay in cash upon arrival. Your name will state 'unpaid' on meetup. This is fine, nobody else can see this information.

Guests, welcome
Yes, you can bring a guest. Please write me a message if this is the case. Guests also pay the 1000 yen.

What to wear?
Please wear comfortable hiking clothes. Bring a backpack (not a shoulder bag). Also, wear sturdy walking or hiking shoes. Sneakers are ok.
