【Kanagawa・Hakone】Hakone Mt. Kintoki and Sengokuhara trekking tour

For more than 400 years, mountainous Hakone was the most difficult part of the Tokaido Highway, a land transportation route that connected Edo (modern-day Tokyo) with Kyoto.
Today, however, Hakone is only 90 minutes away from the capital and is easily accessible by bullet train, private express train, and highway bus.
Despite its proximity to one of the biggest cities in the world, Hakone is also a global geopark with a rich natural environment, and its unique volcanic terrain and verdant mountains mean it is home to a number of endemic plants and animals.
In addition to the lush atmosphere, there are many sightseeing attractions in the area including sightseeing boats that run along Lake Ashi and a ropeway near the sulphureous vents of Owakudani Valley, as well as many cultural facilities such as art museums and golf courses.
It takes about 1 hour and 45 minutes to climb up Mt. Kintoki and 1 hour and 15 minutes for descending.
