The hut we will stay at during the 1st week is a paradise to some with millions of stars visible! Terminal: Tokyo (2 hours by bullet train or 4 hours by slow train). Leisure: Exchange parties, excursion, etc. Partner: Organized together with the Japan National Trust since 1995.

The wildlife and landscape has been damaged by tourists but is still retains much of it's beauty. On a couple occasions local climbers were surprised to see foreign volunteers’ working to maintain and conserve the area and joined our efforts in cleaning up.
