Manners and Rules

Be thankful for the trails!

Many parts of the trail are part of someone’s precious land. Be grateful for the opportunity to encounter nature and life in the satoyama and enjoy the trails in a moderate way. The smartest way to enjoy the trails is not to inconvenience other users or residents of the surrounding area.

Adequate equipment is the minimum etiquette.

Having the necessary equipment on the trail will help ensure your own safety. It also means that you will not cause problems for your companions or others on the trail, so being well-equipped is the first step in good manners. Mountaineering and trekking equipment is basic.
Use checklists and other tools to make sure you are well equipped before you start walking on the trails.

About the equipment required

• Trekking shoes
  Wear trekking shoes made of waterproof and breathable material. Since there are hard rocky terrain and slippery slopes, shoes with firm soles and ankle protection are recommended.
• Rucksack/Backpack
  Please carry a trekking sack (backpack) that allows you to keep both hands free and carry enough luggage.
• Rainwear
  To cope with changing weather conditions and to protect against wind and cold, be sure to carry separate upper and lower rainwear made of waterproof, breathable material.
• Trekking wear
  Wear layers of clothing made of quick-drying materials and be able to respond to temperature changes by taking them off and on. Carry a piece of fleece or other warm clothing in case of sudden weather changes.
• Hats and Gloves
  Wear a hat in summer for sun protection, in winter for warmth, and to protect your head. Likewise, wear gloves to protect your hands.
• Sufficient water and food
  Please plan well in advance and carry the necessary amount of water and food (action food).
• Garbage bag
  All trash must be taken home. Please be sure to carry your own trash bags.
• Map and compass
  Please carry a map and compass with you and use them in parallel, as there are some areas where it is difficult to get a signal from smartphones and other cell phone devices.
