Presentazione generale

Kōyasan and Kumano

Sacred mountains, pilgrimage paths, great shrines and humid forests structure the spiritual heart of the Kii Peninsula.

The discovery of Kōyasan and Kumano is centred around Mount Kōya, the Kumano Nachi Taisha Shrine and the Kumano Kodō Pilgrimage Path. The stay thus alternates between mountain reliefs, forests, heritage and natural spaces, giving a concrete picture of the destination beyond its only best known site.

Vedi tutto

For a stay of 4 to 8 days, it is better to balance visits and travel times. Also to be anticipated: conditions to be checked according to the season. A car is usually the easiest way to connect the different sectors. Accessibility varies from site to site and deserves to be verified step by step.

Mount Kōya

4,7 / 5· HidengoDa 1 a 2 h

Kōyasan forms a small monastic town on a wooded plateau, with temples, religious accommodation and silent paths. The Okunoin cemetery crosses a forest of cedars among thousands of steles, giving the stay a depth that goes beyond the simple visit of monuments.

Tempio

Kumano Nachi Taisha Shrine

4,6 / 5· HidengoDa 30 min a 1 h 15

Kumano Nachi Taisha occupies a slope facing the great waterfall of Nachi, in a very humid forest landscape. The stairs, pavilions and views superpose Shinto cult, Buddhist traditions and mountain geography in a particularly legible site.

Place indismissible

Kumano Kodō Pilgrimage Path

4,5 / 5· HidengoDa 1 a 2 h

Kumano Kodō designates several ancient pilgrimage paths linking the shrines of the peninsula. The cobbled sections cross passes, villages and forests, with routes ranging from a short walk to several days requiring precise organization of stages.
