    We were able to enjoy the beauty of Yakusugi cedars in a relaxed atmosphere. Neither of us were confident in our leg strength or stamina, but we were able to enjoy the forest bathing while taking our time. We would like to visit again.

    I visited Yakushima with my family for the first time and joined a trekking tour in Yakusugiland. It was a leisurely walk and full of magnificent trees, moss, and other sights. We were able to walk freely and the course was relatively easy, so I was able to enjoy it comfortably even with my elementary school-aged children.
