【42 days hiking from Pacific Ocean to Japan Sea】
Central Japanese Alps(17 Sep. to 27 Sep.)
I walked from one side of Japan to another along the ridge lines of Japanese Alps.
These are my journals of the tramping in Japanese wilderness.
I hope these journals help someone who is looking for places to hike.

The line shows the route I took in the Central Alps area. This section starts from Komagane city in Nagano prefecture to Ichinose Camp ground near Norikura-dake.
In this part, I hiked through the scenic Central Alps and Ontake which erupted a few days after I was there.
