Yokogaki Pass (Kumano Kodo Iseji Route) Yokogakitouge
*As of January 2015, the area between Mizutsubo Jizo and the Azumaya rest area is closed to traffic.
The Kumano Kodo Iseji Route is divided into Hamakaido, which goes south along the coast toward Shingu, and Hongu Michi, which heads toward the main shrine.
A portion of the Hongu Road on the Yokogaki Pass Road is covered with cobblestones paved with the unique kounogi rhyolite.
After passing the Mizutsubo Jizo statue, which is said to be part of the town's folklore, there is a pavilion built on the pass, which serves as a resting spot.
This is a popular course that passes through mandarin orange fields.
○Course points: Mizutsubo Jizo - Stone-paved road -yagami- Kamejima stone lantern, etc.
○Walking time: Approximately 2 hours
○Distance: Approximately 5.4km (Yokogaki Pass Noriguchi bus stop - Takachira bus stop)
○ Rest spots: Yokogaki Pass climbing entrance, Kumano Kodo Regional Center Sagiri no Sato, Azumaya, etc.
*Please check with each contact point before going out.
