Walking Along the Nankaido

Course 7Going Over the Kimi-toge

At the beginning of the Heian period, the Nankaido began to stretch over the Kimi mountain pass entering Kinokuni which later became an important highway connecting the Kawachi area and Kii. This route takes you to Hashimoto, mainly along the National Route no.371. When crossing the mountain pass, the route will take you along the old highway they used in the old days.
