Yakushima National Park

Choose two or more items and save on your trip:

Exploring the ancient forests of Yakushima, just off Kyushu.

This place, with its sub-tropical environment and stunning mountainous landscape, truly is a nature lovers paradise.

It's also home to some of Japan's oldest living trees, some of which are over 1,000 years old - the oldest might even be 7,000+ years.

We hiked up to Taiko-iwa (太鼓岩) during our Shiratani Unsuikyo hike in Yakushima. It has a fantastic view of the surrounding mountain range at 1,050 meters above sea level.

Much of this island is part of the Yakushina National Park and also a World Natural Heritage site.

*From the entrance of Shiratani Unsuikyo, it's about a 6km-hike round trip.

Shiratani Unsuikyo Ravine (白谷雲水峡) is a lush forest, full of moss covered rocks and trees. Some places have a clear path, others a pink ribbon is your only guide. But it is an easy hiking course and a great place for beginners to explore Yakushima National Park. In 1993, part of the park was registered as a World Nature Heritage Site for its unique ecosystem.

*You can take a bus from Miyanoura to the entrance of Shiratani Unsuikyo.
