- I went to Kuju to check out some autumn leaves! Mt. Kuju is one of the 100 famous mountains of Japan (hyakumeizan). Next time I'd like to take a tent any stay a night.

I had a great day. Next time I’ll stay the night at a hut or in a tent for sure! If you enjoyed this, please give it a thumbs up!
Bucket list hike right there
Thanks! It was awesome!
Great varied terrain! Love the stone hut! Reminds me of Akitakomagatake a little. I'd love to get down there someday.
Thank you! It's definitely one I'll be visiting again! So much to see.
Hiking in Japan looks incredible, I've always wanted to visit the large cities there but the nature looks just as worth it!
I think it is! Thanks for watching!
The first time I have seen a bunch of people on the hike with you! It always seems like you find trails no one else knows about!
Haha yeah I like the unpopular trails! This was a great day though :)
Kyushu Trail it looked beautiful! And some color is showing up!
Gerat vid man! Beautiful weather also. The trails through Bogatsuru up to Daisen have the most color in my experiences. Bogatsuru is great place to camp and there's an onsen nearby. Wish I had the time to get back there.
Yeah looking at everyone's pics this week Daisen def. looks like the better place for color. I'll take a tent and camp at Bogatsuru next time for sure! Thank you for your comment!
Went to Kuju-san yesterday. Such an amazing view. I didnt get a chance to do all of the mountain range. Just subscribed since I also live in Kyushu and thank you for the videos
Thank you! I’ll be back - with a tent next time!
紅葉が綺麗ですね☺
秋の九重もいい！
来月行きますよー。
動画が楽しみです！
Ah Kuju-san, great views man. Good to see you could escape the crowds for a bit too!
Thanks! Escaping crowds is what I love to do. Do you have any plans to come to the Kuju area again?
@@KyushuTrail Yes, at some point. Taisen and Waita, specifically. Not sure when though. I've put the 300 mountains on the back burner for a while.
Great! Take your time, the mountains aren’t going anywhere :)
1791 meters?! You need to come to Nagano. =D
And bring the sandwich maker.
Are you disrespecting the size of my peak?! Lol
@@KyushuTrail Never!
Next time, I wanna see what you ate after hiking:)//
Ok! But it’s usually not so interesting! Haha
Looks like such a fun hike with all the rocks. I'm so excited for the autumn colours!
I wonder what kind of snake that was.
Did you make it to the dentist?! So many questions!
Good stuff man! =)
Thanks! I wanted to get a better look, but it took off pretty quick. I saw some red markings so I’m guessing yamakagashi. Didn’t make it to the dentist on time... oops.
On second thought it was probably a keelback
Great views, stable camera, nice! I need to go hiking in Japan one of these days. Or trail running!
~ Brandon
Thanks Brandon! Lots of great hiking options here!
久住行きたくなった
今度、テントで泊まりたいです。^_^
Kyushu Trail
法華院温泉でゆっくりお風呂にも浸かりたいですね
40 minutes... from that valley to the top... Did you run?!
I’m a fast walker. People like to tell me it’s because I’ve got long legs.
@@KyushuTrail Those tend to help.
Damn. I'll definately save this vid as a favorite for reference. Views were amazing. Excelent hike, indeed.
Thanks mate! Can’t go wrong hiking this area!
The paths up there look pretty well worn a bit like those in the english lake district. Obviously well used!
Yeah! Lots of people even though it was a weekday. It’s one of the most popular places to hike in Kyushu. I’d love to take a wander around the English Lake District someday...
5:26 Where is the local snack 😂
5:39 You have got to be shitting me 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
5:50 Oh, there's the snack.. wait that's not local!! 😂😂
The snack was the wasp. He was a local.
@@KyushuTrail I see those guys and I'm gone lol. How often do you see them? I saw one on Sarakurayama and I ran away so quick hahaha.
I see them maybe once every two or three hikes. Avoid wearing black, don’t make any big movements or sounds, and avoid eye contact!
そろそろ紅葉も良いようですね、出掛けねば！( ´∀｀ )
Let’s go!!!
Where do I begin 😂
First thing I noticed, right off the bat was the subtitles. (I'm at work and can't have the audio on)
When it said "Kutsukakeyama" I knew right away you did the subtitles manually 😂😂 No way in hell RUclips would have automatically transcribed that 😂😂
Second, all these comments on your video. I don't even get this kind of engagement which further leads me to believe youtube has cursed my channel.
Third, your profile on yamap. You get all kinds of crazy comments on there 😳
Don't forget me when you have a million subscribers. 😭😂
Yep! I always do the subtitles manually because I’m not the clearest of speakers. My English has gone a little downhill in the last couple of years.
YAMAP is an insanely popular hiking app/website and I guess being a foreigner makes my profile stick out a little.
I don’t know about the engagement. Some of the comments are from youtubers I like and subscribe to so I guess it’s kind of a community thing.
I don’t think I’ll ever get so many subs. I’m toooo niche! Haha
@@KyushuTrail You are gonna pass me up pretty soon man lol
That sounds like a good goal! lol
Hey, I subscribed to your channel! I am volcanology student from Kyudai and currently making some video about volcano. Your channel is really good! I hope someday we can collaboration to make some videos in the volcano around Kyushu. Have a nice day!
Thank you! That sounds like a great idea. I’ll take a look at your channel tonight! :)
@@KyushuTrail Okay then. It will be nice if we can hike and make a video around the Kyushu's Volcanoes. Looking forward for collaboration!
Hi how is life these days in Kyushu? My friend and I were hoping to celebrate her 60th birthday with a week in Kyushu including hiking Mt. Miyanoura, Mr Kuji and may Kaimon. What do you think? will things be shut down May 17-24th which is when we are hoping to be there. Is it too early to know for sure? would you be willing to befriend me on facebook so I can check in again as it gets closer?
Hi there! It’s possible to hike there now, but people are advised to stay home. Too early to know for sure about May. If you join the “Hiking in Japan” Facebook group, you can ask there. I’m a member of the group. :)
@@KyushuTrail - great thanks- i am a member so I will ask again when it get closer..
Thanks for sharing your adventures through RUclips!
Thank you!!
Can we hike this in april?
Sure can! It’s a good time to go.
@@KyushuTrail Hey! We love your videos and continue to use them for hike research. Would you recommend Beppu/Oita as a home base for easy access to the area? No car. Any other favourite hike areas around? We'll eventually be making our way out to Fukuoka. Great videos!
Hey Brandon! I think Beppu would make a fine home base. You can catch buses from there to places like Mt. Yufu, Mt. Tsurumi, and the Kuju mountains (www.busnavi-oita.com). Beppu is also close to the Kunisaki Peninsula which has some great hikes. Although I mostly hike in Fukuoka, I’m heading to Oita a couple of times in the next few months. I’m going to check out Haneyama and Tawarayama.
Oh if you haven’t seen it yet there’s lots of information you should find useful at www.kyushuhiking.com/
@@KyushuTrail thanks for getting back!
