About the Course – Obarajuku
The course goes to Lake Sagami first, and next it goes to Mount Arashi. The mountain is easy to climb and suits for a day hike. From the top of the mountain, you can see the whole lake below your eyes.
On the last half of the course there is a historical inn “Obarajuku-honjin” Obarajuku-honjin (main inn) is located on the road called “Koshu-kaido”, which is one of the five main routes in Edo priod. There were many inns for travelers around this area in Edo priod, but now only Obarajuku-honjin remainds. It’s said that the building was more than 200 years old. You can get some rest after climbing a mountain.
