I only missed one thing January 19, 2005 8 out of 8 found this review helpful
And that is descriptions of longer treks. There are a few described as 4-8 days long in this book, but when walking I found that that would have been at a snail's pace and the times given had to be halved. Even a quick look at the regional maps will confirm that all hikes described only cover relatively small areas. So those planning a longer trek through the backcountry of Japan might be disappointed, but I understand there aren't many of those. On the other hand, those looking for advice on short hikes in national parks or near the major cities will find lots of good ideas, and practical details that tend to be amazingly correct by guidebook standards!
