(￥1000 Participation Fee)   (Cancelled in case of rain) (intermediate to advance level)

Meeting Place/Time: Shomaru Station at 10:47 am

Train: The train is infrequent and we won’t be able to wait for the next train. 
 Please make sure to arrive at the appointed time since we won’t be able to attend to latecomers.

Hanno Station Departure – 10:05 (Seibu Chichibu line train going towards Seibu Chichibu) – Shomaru Station Arrival – 10:45

Course:  Shomaru Station – Shoumaru Pass – Izu Peak –  Turtle Rock – Shomaru Station

We will have a 4 hour hike on this course with nice views and beautiful forests. There’s also a place where we scale a rock wall with a gentle incline (not dangerous using a chain).  We ascend 546m with quite a few ups and downs.

Bring your food and drink and make sure to wear shoes appropriate for hiking.

ADDITIONAL INF
O
If you come late, it will be about a 25-min walk to our location at
the
dirty angle between the Shinjuku train line bridge and the
Kasaibashi
 Bridge but much closer to the Shinjuku train line bridge.
Call the
organizer  (James 090-1847-5075) if there are any problems
finding us.

RAIN
In the event of light or medium rain this event will NOT be cancelled.
Please bring rain gear and we will take shelter (under a bridge) until
any downpours let up. In the event of heavy rain/strong winds
(e.g.,
typhoon conditions) or lightning then the event will be cancelled
(and
 usually moved to a different day).

Let’s have fun enjoying our local nature while making it better at the
same time.
