Highlights
Mt. Takao is one of the world’s most popular mountains, located just about an hour from central Tokyo. Since being awarded three Michelin stars in 2007, it has attracted around 3 million visitors every year. But Mt. Takao is much more than a popular tourist destination. It is a sacred mountain where nature, history, and spirituality come together. As we trek through the mountain, surrounded by more than 1,600 species of plants, we will discover the fascinating history of Japanese mountain worship and Esoteric Buddhism, traditions that have been deeply rooted in Mt. Takao for centuries. Your trek will be led by a JMGA-certified trekking guide and UIMLA International Mountain Leader, who will help you experience not only the natural beauty of Mt. Takao but also its rich cultural and spiritual heritage.
