hiked Mt. Takao with a friend of class today!! it was a little spur of the moment, but it was really fun! we hiked up the main trail (the #1) from the bottom up (cable cars are for wimps) and it wasn’t too bad once you get to the cable car exit 😅 its not really that high, only 599 meters, but it was a really good work out. on the way down we took the #4 trail, which was not paved and had not railing on the edge but I only almost died once so we’re all good 👍🏻 it was so gorgeous with the autumn leaves though! 🍁🍂
there’s also a tree with roots that look like octopus legs and a bunch of shrines, temples, and tengu statues 👺
