More glimpses from the road around Japan…
I travelled to many parts of Japan but this was my first time in Daisen National Park. They call the main mountain ‘Daisen’ the ‘mini Mount Fuji’ and you can see why from its conical shape. We wanted to get away from the hot hot city for a couple of days and this was the perfect place. In the winter it is a popular ski resort but in the summer, away from the roads, it is a hiker’s paradise.
We went hiking and got wonderfully lost, discovered a hidden temple, and explored the mountains without another soul in sight. Then we came back to our little Japanese inn for a sukiyaki feast and a hot spring. Ahhhhh lovely…
