We'll leave Kita-Kamakura station at 9.30am, so please ensure you arrive at least 10 minutes earlier.

We’ll visit Tokei-ji and Jochi-ji temples, and then take the Daibutsu Hiking Trail.

At the end of the hiking trail is Genjiyama Park, which has the statue of Minamoto no Yoritomo, the famous Japanese Samuri. We'll hopefully be able to have a picnic lunch here.

After the park, we will visit Zeniaraibenzaiten Shrine. Especially popular with people in the business world, it is said that performing a ritual coin washing here will multiply your wealth.

We'll then make our way to Kotoku-in, the home of the daibutsu (big buddha), and then Hase-dera.

Around Hase-dera there are various souvenir shops.

The hiking course is not difficult, so regular sneakers/trainers should be fine.

From Hase we'll take the Enoden to Enoshima, and visit the Enoshima Sea Candle, with views of Mount Fuji.

The event will end at approximately 5pm at Enoshima.

After the event, you may submit a review/evaluation. Please kindly rate appropriately as a low evaluation has an impact on the group. Things you should clearly understand in advance:

1. I (Mark) am not a tour guide. For many events this will also be my first time, and events are mainly organised based on intensive internet research.
2. Nature cannot be guaranteed, so flower festivals may be impacted by the recent climate.
3. We aim to depart on time, however bus schedules might change. This is unavoidable.
4. We request participants arrive EARLY. In rare cases we might wait a few minutes if we do not need to take a bus.
5. The number of participants is not guaranteed. However we will not have large groups.
6. The event finish time might be earlier or later than advertised. The hiking time might be longer/shorter than anticipated. Return bus times are not guaranteed.
