About the Kumano Kodo Pilgrimage

The Kumano Kodo is an ancient network of pilgrimage hiking trails in Japan, on the Kii peninsula (Kii Hantō). It connects the whole of the peninsula with the three main shrines - the Kumano Hongu Taisha, the Kumano Hayatama Taisha, and the Kumano Nachi Taisha. It consists of many different pilgrimages, which are called the Kiji route, Konechi route, Omine Okugakemichi, Iseji route, Nakahechi route, and Ohechi route. The Kumano Kodo is one of the most popular pilgrimages in the world (other ones are the Camino de Santiago and the Via Romea Francigena), and it's over 1000 years old. It's so popular because it allows you to experience the real, ancient culture of Japan, with many temples, shrines, and worship attractions along the way. The trail passes through multiple different towns and villages, and goes through overgrown, green forests, beautiful hills, and offers to encounter plenty of native wildlife.
