Hiking and RV Camping in Kyushu.

We all wanted to go for a Hike.

None of us was keen on too much strain.

So, somehow we ended up hiking this area

 in the middle Kyushu.

Not sure if it was in Oita or Kumamoto Prefecture.

But what a joyful & leisure hike it became.

See here some pictures.

Looks easy enough, don't you agree?

 Arriving at the top....and the view....

...as so often, a bit Japanese hazy, but still spectacular.

Always something to read.

Shoot with Google Translate, and you "know" it all.

If needed, there is a hiking stick for you.....

As found at so many trail-heads.

Great service.

 It was an other crowded day at this Kyushu Hiking trail.

 even spotted some wildlife.

Sign shows you the way and what to see at different the seasons.

This too is a great destination for your 

Camper Rental Trip.

The Way to Go: By camping-car around Kyushu

Hike 'n See Fukuoka

is now working together with 3seven77

a local Camping-car (RV) rental place in Yanagawa, Fukuoka.

Because we are great believers in:

1. RV-ing means you have your own transport: Come and go as you please. No suitcase dragging...
2. RV-ing: enjoy the real Japan in a relaxing way. No time-tables.
3. RV means you can visit unspoiled locations & Kyushu's great nature. Go to locations public transport can not take you.
4. RV-ing means: See the sights, not the tourists. There is more than Kyoto and Tokyo!
5. RV-ing means: easier to meet the locals and true Japanese culture.

January Sojourns in Kyushu

Most SW point @ Kyushu.

The town down there is Makurazaki in Kagoshima Pref. 

Mt Kaimon is popping out of the haze.

A bit closer to Mt Kaimon.

The trail to the top is pleasant and easy hike.

At the base of this Small Mt Fuji are plenty of hot-springs.

And the famous Hot Sand Bath beaches.

View from the top....

Some pictures taken while hiking around Fukuoka.

 Map showing Itoshima, just to the west of Fukuoka city.

And one week later, it was time to hike Mt Iimori.

It's only  an easy 1 hour stroll to the top.

Iimori Jinja is at the base of the mountain.

This temple has a strong link to horse riding & archery.

And of course, on 3 February it is: Setsubun.

A festival to celebrate is THE day before Spring starts ..... 

Yeahhhh

Make sure, you enter Fuku chan's mouth.

Good things will follow.
