    Mt Shirouma absolutely blew me away, from start to finish! This is without a doubt the best hike I've ever been on in my entire life and I'll recommend it forever! It was a pretty challenging hike though, with endurance being the main challenge but the incredible views made it worth it 1000%.
    As mentioned, we started the hike at Tsugaike Central Parking Lot, took a ropeway, then a gondola to the trailhead and began the 8+hr hike to the top (normally takes 6-7hrs).
    Access to the ropeway can be found here: thejapanalps.com/en/access-ts...

The music matches perfectly the scenery and creates this incredible atmosphere. This is keeping our dream of hiking in Japan alive. Thank you! Thanks too for the directions for the hike at the end of the video. You mentioned that it is a challenging hike. Do you register your names and info with the authorities prior to these hikes in general, just in case help may be needed? Here in Canada I do think a lot of people would register before heading deep into the mountains for an adventure.

    Love your videos Hannah! 😍 This one is spectacular too of course. *"Damn Japan! Damn!!"* The banter with the guys who didn't bring their bathing suits, the rando couple you guys posed with, the butterflies, the butterfly freakout lol, the drone footage as always is top notch, the nod to your singing etc. You guys made it together. 👏😁👏 I'd love any good tips on hiking boots, and who knows... maybe you can do a winter hike with Quinlan. Replace a traumatic experience with a really good one eh. 👟👟 I'm with Jon-Stephen Stansel on the other thing though. I have zero respect for the egomaniacs that run Canva, and the continued harm they perpetuate in devaluing what is already stressful, extremely under-appreciated, and underpaid work that designers do. His analogy that a highly processed microwave 'dinner' is not a replacement for a home cooked meal or going to a restaurant, imho absolutely applies here. Not to mention the data breach, phishing scams etc. In good conscience, I would love to urge you Hannah to not take these sponsorships which harm plenty of people that are already doing it tough. 🙏

    • @CalParr
      @CalParr 2 роки тому +1

      @@CurrentlyHannahit’s pretty tough slog going up that way but the snow patch is impressive even in summer still really thick. The way the weather worked out we had pretty much clear skies going up first day and we went to the peak for sunset. The views going up were nice but hard to compare to other route because the day we came down Tsugaike route we were pretty much in the clouds. The lake looked impressive but not as good as in your shots with the fine weather. I probably wouldn’t go back just to do the sarukura route by itself but if you don’t plan any winter hiking it prob worth to return to hike a bit on the snow patch. The lower down hut we stayed at also has Viking buffet style dinner and breakfast which it pretty unique in itself. They’re the oldest huts in Japan apparently. If you wanted to return you go up Sarukura and then turn left (south) a long to ridge to Mt Goryu if you didn’t want to repeat the route. The kirette is meant to be impressive and not as advanced as daikirette or jandam
