Tsumago to Kiso-Fukushima

Today was Day 5 on the Nakasendo. The route from Tsumago to Kiso-Fukushima was 24 km long and took 6 hours. It was a beautiful walk but unfortunately, it rained all day.


We left the inn at 8:15 am. The town was atmospheric in the early morning with no visitors yet and the gentle rain added to it. It was 1 1/4 hour hike to Nagiso, where we bought our picnic lunch.

We took the alternate route through the Ne-no-ue Pass.


From here, it's an hour descent to the Nojiri station.


We arrived in Nojiri at 2:15 pm. We caught the 3:08 pm train from Nojiri and arrived in Kiso Fukushima at 3:37 pm--ticket was Y410.
