This course runs from KumanoCity along Shichirimihama Beach to Shingu, where Kumano Hayatama Taisha, one of the three Kumano shrines, is enshrined.

(Hamakaido North)
This is the only relatively flat course along the Iseji route that goes over many mountain passes, but in the past, pilgrims were often killed by the waves when crossing the mouths of the Shihara and Ichiki rivers. It is said that there were quite a few.
Although the distance is long, you can see great natural spots unique to HigashiKishu, such as Hana-no-Iwaya and Shishiiwa, and there are many places to stop as it is also Michi-no-eki.

(Hamakaido South)
If you go along the coast of Shichirimihama, pass through a hill with a great view and go down Mikiri-zaka, you will reach the Kumano River, which is registered as a World Heritage Site.
Beyond the Kumano River is the sacred place of Kumano. After visiting Kumano Hayatama Taisha, the pilgrims continued their journey to Kumano Nachi Taisha and Kumano Hongu Taisha.
