要点
- Ibaraki Prefecture in Japan has fully opened the Hitachi-no-kuni Long Trail, a circular walking route roughly 350 km long. According to Ibaraki Prefecture’s official website, it is the longest loop trail in Japan.
- For hikers, the main appeal is that there is no need to walk all 350 km. Because the trail is a loop, you can start at any point and choose which section to walk and how far to go, according to the official Hitachi-no-kuni Long Trail website.
- One of the most appealing sections for visitors passes through the Okukuji area. It is home to Fukuroda Falls, Mt. Namase-Fuji, Mt. Tsukiore and Mt. Nantai, as well as hot springs. Fukuroda Falls is one of the area’s main natural landmarks, and Mt. Nantai rises to 654 metres.
- Elsewhere on the loop, the trail reaches the coast with views of the ocean and passes through old settlements and sites tied to Japanese history and culture.
- You don’t have to plan a multi-day trek, because the trail website lists several short model courses. One example is a 5.3 km loop from a municipal car park over Mt. Namase-Fuji to Fukuroda Falls and back, which takes about 3 hours 40 minutes.
