Encountering the origin of Yakushima☆.
World Natural Heritage "Western Terrestrial Forest" Forest Experience TourThis is a 6-hour guided tour that allows you to fully experience the Western Terrestrial Forest, the beginning of the forests of Yakushima, with all five senses.
The shiny-leaved forests that envelop the island in green all year round are the foundation forests that support the water, soil, and all living things on Yakushima. Why don't you experience the original forest of Yakushima?
Instead of focusing on walking distance and speed, stop and touch the leaves, feel the temperature of the trunks, and listen carefully to the sound of rain and the silence of the forest. Enjoy a deep forest time that emphasizes not only "seeing" but also "feeling.
