👍👍 とても歩きやすい木道が敷かれています。所々、階段があるので、車椅子では途中までしか行けません。 湿原の散歩道は30分もあれば歩けます。いくつかルートがあるので、そのルート全部をゆっくり観察しながら歩くと1-2時間といったところでしょうか。ビジターセンターもあるので、そこである程度知識をいれてからだと楽し...

👍👍 大入道のハイキング時に沢の音がよく聞こえてきます。ただここに来るには塩原に向かう県道を山の駅とおしらじの滝を越えてさらに車で10分程度走ったところ（右カーブになっているところの左手）に駐車場がある。8月盆過ぎの平日だったが昼でほぼ満車の状態。沢沿いに遊歩道が設けられており、滑らない靴なら問題なく歩ける...

👍👍 日帰り登山でした。 ロープーウェイから山頂へ向かうルートは子供でも登れると思います。 ただ雨水で道が削られて段差がとても高いです。 ロープーウェイを使わないルートはそれなりに過酷です。

👍👍 紅葉ウォッチングのため森林植物園を訪れましたが、平日の朝でも駐車場に入る車の列で渋滞になっていたため、あきらめてこちらの池を訪問することにしました。 規模は植物園と比べるとそれほどではありませんが、無料の駐車場から少し歩くと絶景の紅葉がお出迎えをしてくれました。 湖面に映った逆さ紅葉も見事で、ゆっくり...

👍👍 The hike is steep. So many steps and uneven rocks. It's tough but the view is wonderful. I definitely got smoked by like 5 guys at least 40 years older than me. It was embarrassing. Reminder** japanese national parks require you to bring your own bathroom.

👍👍 This is the parking where the trail up to Mt. Nosoko starts. It takes about 15 minutes and is quite steep and overgrown. But the view from the top is more than worth the effort.

👍 当初、ネット情報を参考にして、試しの鎖は石鎚山登山にはあまり意味がないとのことで、体力温存のために迂回道を通って、先の一軒茶屋に至りました。ところが、割と年配の方たち(とは言っても、経験を積まれている方達だと思いますが)がチャレンジされているのを見て、なかなかこの山に来る機会もないだろうと思い、引き返...
