More from Japan
Join us on an unforgettable journey Off the Rails in Kansai, as we ditch the usual tourist trails.
More to Watch
A new long-distance trail is stringing together waterfalls, sacred mountains and old-school Japan just 90 minutes from the capital.
Take a passage through mountain passes and discover Japan’s off-piste playground. The heavy-laden alpine trees creak and crack before their dead, brittle branches give way and thud into freshly fallen snow. The wallop echoes through the trees, slicing the silence in Japan’s Aokigahara Forest.
Travelling to the remote Okinawa island of Yonaguni is a step back in time to rugged coastlines, tiny seaside villages, wild horses and an ancient underwater mystery.
