540代Month of posting: 2024/03The half-day trekking tour to Shiratani-unsui Gorge was an unforgettable experience for our family. Even though we were not particularly confident in our physical strength, we were able to enjoy the walk to the Mononoke Forest without any difficulty thanks to the careful support of our guide.
