Walk from Narai to Kiso-Fukushima using the old Nakasendo route. In Kiso Valley you are able to discover Japan the way it was 400 years ago. Most villages do not change and no skyscrapers are built. It was a really wonderful but long walk (it took me about 7-8 hours). To access Kiso-Fukushima to have to pass the Torii Pass to and this demands a lot of stamina because the way is very steep. However, the inhabitants of this region were very friendly and always wished my good look for the walk. They are not very used to see foreigners around here so i was a bit of an interesting subject for them.
