OUR ROUTE:

Just steps from Kita-Kamakura Station, Engakuji is a prestigious Zen temple—ranked second among Kamakura’s Five Great Zen Temples—known for its vibrant hydrangeas in early summer. Surrounded by lush greenery and historical architecture, the temple grounds become a tapestry of blues and purples that gently shift with the light. The hydrangeas here bloom in various corners of the expansive grounds, offering visitors a moment of calm with every visit.

Hydrangeas begin to bloom in late May, with peak season occurring from mid to late June.

Hydrangeas of Engakuji (円覚寺)

We will then walk to the Great Buddha at Ofuna. At a commanding 25 metres in height, this impressive "goddess of mercy of the white robe" sculpture saw completion in 1960, despite initial construction having begun in 1929. WWII put various attempts to recommence on hold but it was certainly worth the wait. The compelling stone and concrete bust watches over the area, affording protection to those who come to pray.
Ofuna Kannon

We will then take a bus from Ofuna station to the **Taya Caves **at Josen-ji, a Shingon Buddhist temple which was founded in Japan’s Muromachi period. The caves are said to have first been opened up in the Kamakura period, and the walls are carved with images of the great monk Kukai and the principle objects of worship in pilgrimage sites throughout Shikoku, Saigoku, Bando, and Chichibu. Pay a small fee to receive a traditional “yuraisho” documenting the history of the temple and a votive candle, after which you may follow a 300-meter-long path to a worship site. As you engage in quiet and solemn prayer in the caves, you will begin to feel their long history.

We will then return to Ofuna station by bus, and then walk 15-20 minutes to Ofuna Botanical Garden.
Japanese Iris (best viewing season: June) and Rose (best viewing season: May to Jul., Oct. to Nov.)
Visitors can enjoy a variety of flowers, which have been improved and cultivated on this site since the Taisho period (early 20C), and can be seen only in this Garden. They also grow and display excellent ornamental plants collected from home and abroad with a focus on the systematically-gathered roses and rhododendrons.

The event will officially end back at Ofuna station.

Optional: join me for a monorail ride to Enoshima, 14 minutes ¥340 and then the Enoden to Kamakura, 24 minutes ¥260. Let's take a look at the nighttime sea views around Enoshima.

Please bring your lunch with you.

Additional fees (approximate):
Engaku-ji ¥500
Ofuna Kannon ¥300
Taya Caves (Josen-ji) ¥400
Ofuna Botanical Garden ¥400
Bus Ofuna to Taya Caves ¥240x2

Minamisawa Ajisai (Hydrangea) Mountain is a mountain located in Akiruno City, a 30 minute drive from Akiruno Interchange or 40 minute hike from JR Musashi-Itsukaichi Station is renowned for its bigleaf hydrangeas.

Unlike its name, "Mountain", this place is actually not a mountain, but more like a forest where over 10,000 hydrangeas have been planted on the hillside in the valley, by a local man, Chuichi Minamisawa, who has been planting them for half a century.

We will meet at Musashi-Itsukaichi station at 11.10am. Please kindly ensure you arrive punctually.

There is an Itsukaichi Line train departing Haijima station at 10.42am, arriving at 10.59am. This is the latest train you should take.

Please bring your lunch. We will find a suitable spot at the summit. There are also picnic tables during the hike.

Spring in the Fukazawa area brims with floral delights beyond hydrangeas, from cherry blossoms to Mitsumata, flowering peach blossoms, and camellias, promising a kaleidoscope of colors to dazzle every guest.

Minamisawa Hydrangea Mountain is a botanical wonderland in Tokyo's Akiruno City, showcasing nature's colorful palette, painting a picture of beauty and serenity.

In June one can view over 10,000 hydrangeas from one hundred different species blanketing the mountainside.

The trails that lead from the station to Minamisawa Hydrangea (Ajisai) Mountain are easily marked both in Japanese and English with wooden dwarfs sometimes popping here and there as if to greet the hikers. After exiting the ticket gate at JR Musashi-Itsukaichi Station, go to the north exit on the right. Once going up the stairs, follow the signs to the mountain. It is 2600meters or about a 40minutes walk to Minamisawa Hydrangea Mountain.

While most of the trails that wind up the side of the mountain through a cedar forest are covered in classical blues, there are other colors like pink and white. During the blooming seasons from mid-June to early July, many visit the mountain to witness the magnificent blossoms of the hydrangea which create a magical panorama.

The Fukazawa district unfolds a tale of history and nature entwined, where guests can bask in the beauty of seasonal blooms, and uncover the historic Fukazawa family mansion, and the revered Mountain-Hugging Oak, a 300-year-old natural monument.

The mountain is set to build an array of new features along its hiking trail in the near future. Visitors will be able to relax under the dappled shade of a gazebo, stroll along a deck terrace and observation deck, all of which will be built with wooden foundations boasting 30-year rot resistance, a testament to the mountain's dedication to eco-friendly practices without concrete.

Enjoy the beauty of hydrangeas and nature's refreshing woodlands at Minamisawa Hydrangea Mountain, one of Tokyo's top hydrangea sightseeing spots!

It was only about 50 years ago that hydrangeas began to be grown in this mountain. Chuichi Minamisawa, whose family has lived in this area for generations, decided to plant two hydrangeas thinking that it would be better if he could walk through the flowers to visit the graves. At first, he planted them along the road from his house to the cemetery, but eventually he expanded the area around the road.

Whenever his relatives visited, they were amazed by the hydrangeas, and when he saw that passersby also enjoyed the "beauty" of the hydrangeas, he wanted to please everyone. So he increased the number and variety of hydrangeas.

By taking care of the hydrangeas for more than half a century, eventually, the entire mountain was covered with heaps and heaps of hydrangeas. It now became a hotspot with flooding visitors annually during the blossoming seasons.

The Koburi Pass in Saitama comes with spectacular scenery, is an easy hike, and it’s hard to beat for complete rural and peaceful immersion. It’s a relatively easy 3-4 hour walk with amazing views and very few people.

We will meet at Seibu-Agano Station at 10.30am. Please kindly ensure you arrive punctually. The Seibu-Chichibu line train leaves Hanno at 10.05am, arriving at 10.25am.

After ascending through the forest and a beautiful bamboo groove you arrive at Suwa Shrine (諏訪神社). On a clear day, there’s a great view overlooking Saitama and if you’re lucky you might even be able to spot Tokyo Skytree.

OUR ROUTE:

Once you alight at Agano Station, take a right and follow the Koburi pass – “顔振峠” sign down some steps and right again along a quiet road.

After a few minutes of walking, you need to take a left to the underpass, under the main road.

Once you cross under the main road, you go up a slope and past a school (on your left) and down again then take a right following the hopefully now familiar 顔振峠 sign. Finally you’ll see another sign pointing you left to the road that winds up into the mountain, and a while down this road you eventually you’ll get to the entrance to the path.

The next part of the route is a fairly steady climb through forest, probably about 300m in altitude gain. Just keep following the same signs taking you up the mountain. At one point you cross over a road and a few steps later there’s a great view of the valley on one side and a shrine on the other.

A few steps further and you come back to the road with a couple of eateries. If you didn’t pack lunch, then this is your last chance to grab some eats before the end of the hike. In fact both restaurants are good spots to take a break, bask in the view quoff some delightful Japanese grub for fairly cheap. Also if the visibilities is good, you should be able to see Mount Fuji just poking it’s head over the ridge on the otherside of the valley.

Follow the trail heading further uphill (straight, not right) another 5 mins to a view point, which starts from behind the eatery. The view point at the top is a small clearing with an unobstructed view of most of Saitama.

After the view point, continue along the trail back through the woods and looking out for the Suwa Shrine signs.

After the shrine, head down to the clearing area, which slightly resembles a car park, and look for the sign to “Yugate” (ユガテ).

From here on, you should follow the signs to Yugate, and eventually to the station Higashi Agano (東吾野). Just a few meters down the trail there should be a sign in Japanese saying “Can you see Tokyo Sky Tree?”. If the visibility is good, then you should have a pretty epic view of Saitama and Tokyo plus can most probably detect a tall dark structure (the SkyTree) in the distance, a bit to the north of the skyscrapers of downtown Tokyo.

Keep following the trail, and after a few more minutes you’ll see fork with a sign post to Ogamiyama (上越山). Follow the route to Yugate.

For the next 30 mins to hour, just keep hiking along the ridge and following the signs to ユガテ. The trail crosses over the road a couple of times, but just keep following the signs and you’ll be on the right track. Eventually the trail brings you to just above Yugate which is a pleasant spot full of flowers and blossoming trees (Hint: Spring is probably the best time to be here). You can descend down to Yugate to the left side of the ridge, and the path to Higashi Agano station is down the right side of the ridge.

It takes a further 45 mins to descend through the forest and follow the road to the Higashi Agano station, and it’s all pretty clearly sign posted.
