Journey to Jomon Cedars with a guide

A veteran guide will lead you around the Jomon Cedars, which are said to be 7200 years old. The trek to the cedars is a long 22 km round trip. This tour requires a certain level of physical fitness, as it includes an 8-km trolley ride and a 400-meter elevation gain along a mountain trail.

One of the largest old trees on Yakushima is a sight to behold.
