The Kyoto trail is a hiking course of 83.3 km around the Kyoto basin, running from Fushimi-Momoyama station to Kamikatsura station.
I hiked one part of Kyoto trail, from Keage to Mt. Hiei trailhead on April 19th, 2020.
I’ll introduce the Himukai-Daijingu shrine, Mt. Daimonji, Hachi shrine, Kitashirakawa-Tenjingu shrine and others.
