Hi, I’m Tabi!

Komaki lies north of Nagoya, with a castle-site hill and local worship traditions. Begin around Mount Komaki, planning northern shrine visits separately.

This guide covers places within Komaki, rather than places immediately beside your app check-in.

01 · EXPLORE

Three places to begin

What could you try?

Nagoya Cochin is a chicken breed associated with Komaki. Explore local dishes or egg products, checking ingredients rather than assuming every chicken dish uses this breed.

03 · YOUR FIRST WALK

Keep your first walk simple

Try the foot of Mount Komaki and a chosen walking trail. Decide on a summit visit after checking slopes and facility access; shrine and temple trips can be separate.

Check the walking route

Check actual distances and travel times on the map. This suggested walk is separate from your app movement record.

Before you set off

  • Check current entry rules, opening information and return transport.
  • Choose an outing suited to steps, slopes and weather.
  • Respect worship spaces and photography rules; check food ingredients at the shop.
