Hi, I’m Tabi!

Konan here is the city in Aichi, with Kiso River scenery and the Hotei area. It is distinct from Konan in Kochi and Gangnam in Seoul. Choose one of these separate areas first.

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

03 · YOUR FIRST WALK

Keep your first walk simple

Explore open pedestrian areas around Suitopia for riverward scenery. Check river conditions and facility access, and save the Hotei area for separate transport if preferred.

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 entry arrangements and return transport first.
  • Choose one stop to suit weather, slopes and local restrictions.
  • Respect private areas and photography rules; check food ingredients locally.
