Description
Very close to the huge city of Tokyo, there is a different world. I invite you to go on this hiking program just outside the big city. Join me on a tour around virgin forests, and enjoy a local experience.
On this program, we can aim for different areas, all of which can be planned as 1-day trips. Some of this Mounts are:
Tsukuba-san: 877 m (2,900 ft) tall, this Mt is well-known for its two peaks, Nyotai (877 meters) and Nantai (871 meters). A bit rocky mountain, since it is made of granite and gabbro, while most mountains in Japan are made of lava. This mountain is located on the edge of Kanto Plain (Tokyo area), the largest plain in Japan.
Okumusashi hiking. We walk through Satoyama, an area between the mountains and the field, where old villages used to be settled in. On the way, we can see old houses, temples and monuments. At the end, we visit a waterfall and then have a meal in a very traditional Japanese house restaurant with Irori stove! You will definitely enjoy a real Japanese experience on this trip.
Mt. Takao hiking. Mt. Takao is situated in Tokyo and it is a beautiful hiking spot, also considered a sacred mountain used for religious training. There are several courses to reach the top (599m),from where you can contemplate a nice view. On the way to the mountain, you also can enjoy lively streets.
For these hikes, I can take groups of between 1 and 6 hikers.
If you are interested in any of these Hiking programs in Tokyo, request your booking! I would love to show you around these amazing places in the near future. Have a look at another program I guide, the Guided hiking tour around Mt Fuji.

Mountain Guide
I was born in Tokyo, Japan, and am a JMGA certified hiking guide with a 10 years guiding experience. I've been assistant guiding for far longer before that both in rock climbing and in ski mountaineering.
I travel a lot myself to mountains outside of Japan and my wish is now to also be able to show the visitors from abroad the beautiful mountains and the culture of Japan. Japan is not just about powder snow. I'd like to share with you my experiences in the Japanese mountains and dive into the rich Japanese culture at the same time.
I also run a travel agency registered in Tokyo so I can organise packaged mountain tours for you! Please contact me if you're interested in getting to know more about our mountains!

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
