Hi, I’m Tabi!

Former Ninomiya in Tochigi joined Moka in March 2009. This guide stays within the former town boundary, pairing a historic site with a roadside station.

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

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.
