Walking the Kumano Kodo UNESCO World Heritage Site and Magose Pass as people did centuries ago

[Content of experience/ Story to convey] Around 200 years ago, travelers aimed to make a pilgrimage to Ise Shrine at least once in their lifetime. The road connecting Ise Shrine and the three mountains of Kumano is the Iseji Route of Kumano Kodo. On that route, the Magose Pass features a long stone-paved path made in the Edo period that winds through the forest, offering stunning views unlike anything you have seen before. This path, now part of the World Heritage Site "Sacred Sites and Pilgrimage Routes in the Kii Mountain Range," was not used by nobles. It was the route chosen by common travelers who dared to take the steep road to Kumano. It has remained unchanged over the centuries, with local people having protected it as a path for their everyday movements. As you think of the history and the stories of travelers, you will feel as though you have stepped out of an ukiyo-e woodblock print. This experience is sure to become a special memory for you. [Recommended points] Transform into a traveler straight out of an ukiyo-e woodblock print to experience walking along the Kumano Kodo in traditional attire. You can take photos at the breathtaking spot of Magose Pass, where the stone-paved path remains as it was in the past. Listen to the guide's explanations and walk while seeing the world through the eyes of a traveler in the Edo period. You'll feel like you've traveled back in time. Part of the experience fees will be donated to the Kihoku Town Kumano Kodo Council, a group that maintains and preserves the Kumano Kodo in Kihoku Town. Limited-scale 1-day private tour for single groups. Gift of hanamochi rice cakes and original wrapping cloth
