You'll hike through the serene forests and crisp morning air of Mt. Futaba, just a quick 10-minute walk from Hiroshima Station. This natural wonder, nestled northeast of Hiroshima Castle, boasts temples and shrines that exude ancient power and beauty.


Join a private tour or small group for a three-hour adventure. Meander through the sacred forest, passing under rows of torii gates, immersing yourself in the mystical energy that refreshes body and soul. Your journey will be crowned with breakfast and a stunning traditional tea ceremony.


Nature lovers, this one's for you! Your enthusiastic guides are head over heels for Hiroshima's beauty. This team of expert guides share a love of nature, Japanese culture, and Hiroshima. They've taken their passion and combined a special Japanese breakfast and tea ceremony to create a unique experience on top of Mt. Futaba.


The hike grants you breathtaking vistas of Hiroshima City, the Seto Inland Sea, and even Miyajima, nature's masterpiece! Along with your meal, you'll experience Nodate, the ancient art of making tea outdoors. Sip matcha while gazing at the panoramic view of the city, pure serenity!


The majestic Hiroshima Toshogu shrine, crafted by Kyoto artisans during the Edo period, stands as the "entrance" to the mountain, providing picture-perfect spots at every turn. This landmark has witnessed Hiroshima's history and continues to awe visitors.


Mingle with the tranquility of the sacred guardian forest, breathe in fresh mountain air, and discover hidden gems with your knowledgeable guide.
