    Hiking

    Part of the Women's Pilgrimage Trail (Nyon-michi): Fresh water and stamp booklets for the trail are available at the information point. The climb is initially steep, but very beautiful.

    Until the modernization of Japan in the late 19th century, women were forbidden from entering Koyasan. Though women were banned from entry, seven halls were built at each of the entrances to Koyasan for the female pilgrims to pray. Today only one of these halls still remains, which can be found near the Fudozaka Slope.
