Hi, I’m Tabi!

Yabu in Hyogo’s Tajima region combines shrine heritage and mountain scenery. Begin at Yabu Shrine and plan separate transport and hiking preparation for Tendaki.

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

01 · EXPLORE

Two places to begin

Two different places: start with whichever interests you.

02 · A LITTLE BITE

What could you try?

The tourism association features Tajima beef dishes. Check origin, ingredients and current menus rather than assuming every beef dish uses Tajima beef.

03 · YOUR FIRST WALK

Keep your first walk simple

Explore open visitor areas at Yabu Shrine, keeping paths clear for residents and worshippers. Prepare Tendaki as a separate hiking outing.

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.
