    Tips

    The climb from Koguchi to the highest point of the pass is over 800 meters in altitude. For hundreds of years, pilgrims have struggled up here to get to the Nachi Taisha temple complex. On the sign at the top of the pass is the following sentence by the poet Fujiwara Teika (1162-1241), who also made a pilgrimage here: “This path is hard and strenuous; It’s hard to describe how strenuous the climb actually is.”
