Hi, I’m Tabi!

This is mountain-country Nichinan in Tottori, distinct from Nichinan City in Miyazaki. Explore the gorge and former schoolyard as separate visits.

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

01 · EXPLORE

Two places to begin

Two different places: start with whichever interests you.

Rocks and late-autumn trees at Sekkakei, 201501

A first-visit stop

Sekkakei Gorge

石霞渓

The photograph shows rocks and trees in late autumn 2015. It does not promise current foliage or water conditions. Use designated viewpoints and avoid unsafe descents toward the road or water.

Getting there
Check the current approach and return transport on the map.

02

A first-visit stop

Ginkgo at the Former Hinokami Elementary School

旧日野上小学校のイチョウ

A ginkgo stands in the former schoolyard. For autumn visits, check the current year’s entry and shuttle arrangements. Do not assume the old school building is open for casual exploration.

Getting there
Check the current approach and return transport on the map.

02 · A LITTLE BITE

What could you try?

Local tourism information introduces cultivated jinenjo yam and products made from it. Check which noodles, puddings or other products are available.

03 · YOUR FIRST WALK

Keep your first walk simple

Try the first destination’s permitted entrance → public areas. Choose the other stop after checking separate transport and access.

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.
