Hi, I’m Tabi!

Hashimoto is a city around the Kinokawa River in northeastern Wakayama. It is distinct from Koyasan itself: begin with a shrine within the city or a temple near the station.

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

01 · EXPLORE

Two places to begin

Two different places: start with whichever interests you.

Worship hall at Suda Hachiman Shrine01

A first-visit stop

Suda Hachiman Shrine

隅田八幡神社

Explore wooden buildings and trees in the shrine’s permitted worship areas. Its associated bronze mirror is a National Treasure, but this guide does not promise that the original is on display. Check ceremonies and public access.

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

02

A first-visit stop

Ogoji Temple

応其寺

A temple associated with Mokujiki Ogo, linked to the development of Hashimoto. Choose it as a small history stop near the station, while respecting worship areas and photography notices.

Getting there
Check the walking approach from Hashimoto Station.

02 · A LITTLE BITE

What could you try?

Look for the city’s specialty persimmons at seasonal farm shops. Varieties, ripeness and sales periods differ; check locally. Respect private orchards and do not expect unrestricted access.

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. Choose your departure point on the map.

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.
