The "Sekida Mountains" where the Shinetsu Trail extends is Satoyama. Do you know about Shinetsu-Trail , north part of Nagano prefecture ?The Sekida Mountain ridges are one of the heaviest snowfall areas in the world. It is along the ridgeline of a forested area at an altitude of about1,000m.From early June to November you are able to walk the trail, as all the snow has melted.In early summer, the trail is beautiful with fresh green leaves and in late autumn as the days get colder, the leaves turn stunning colors.Currently, the trail has 6 Individual sections each between 8~12km. It takes approximately 6~7 hours to hike one section.Sections 1~6 total about 80km. Later this year, 4 new sections (7~10) will be opened making the trail 110km from start to finish.I plan to hike the entire trail, sections 1~10 before the first snow fall.Reasonable accommodation is available if you would like to stay overnight, and I can help with those arrangements if needed, so please feel free to ask.This is a serious hike, so please be certain of your fitness, capability, a nd equipment.If you are interested, or have any questions at all about anything, do not hesitate to contact me directly.
