Since many of the trails involve steep ascents and descents, a moderate level of fitness is required. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e     Routes vary from 5 to 64km (3–40 miles) and crisscross the mountainous Kii Peninsula, south of Osaka. Some can be enjoyed in a single day or half-day, whereas the Nakahechi and Kohechi routes lend themselves to a 4-day mini-trek. Spring and late autumn are best for the trails, although the Nakahechi can be walked year-round. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e1:50,000 mapping\u003c\/b\u003e plus larger-scale maps for key towns and the main shrines     \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e         Detailed information on \u003cb\u003epublic transport, accommodation and refreshments\u003c\/b\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e         Advice on \u003cb\u003eplanning and preparation\u003c\/b\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e         Fascinating insights into \u003cb\u003eJapanese culture and spirituality\u003c\/b\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eGPX files\u003c\/b\u003e available to download     \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MediaPlace","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57397807415678,"sku":"NW9781786312426","price":18.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1379\/1261\/files\/9781786312426.jpg?v=1778665387","url":"https:\/\/mediaplace.com\/en-eu\/products\/japans-kumano-kodo-pilgrimage","provider":"MediaPlace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
