Kyoto Hiking Group

We walk from Arashiyama station to Kita Katsura station crossing Matsuo mountains. It's the easiest part of this 10-part course. It should be a good opportunity to see some fall leaves.

The meeting spot is outside of Hankyu Arashiyama Station at 09.45.

We finish at Kami Katsura Station.

Bicycle parking and convenience store
There is paid bicycle parking at the meeting point. Also, there is a convenience store.

The route

Around Kyoto in 10-ish days
This is the tenth, and final, part of the 'around Kyoto in about ten days` event series. You can join one, two or come along for the whole trip.

Safety and communication
It's likely that last minute messages through line, what's app or meetup chat are not read. (up to 30 minutes before leaving time).
This is because I'm talking to other members.

Your safety and wellbeing is the most important. We start and come back as a group. We go at the pace of the slowest walker.
Please follow instructions provided by the guide. This is to keep you and the group safe.
