Japan's Kumano Kodo Pilgrimage, Paperback

Guidebook to walking Japan's Kumano Kodo, a network of ancient Buddhist/Shinto pilgrimage trails on the Kii Peninsula, south of Osaka. Covering the Nakahechi, Kohechi, Iseji and Ohechi variants, the guide has all the practical information needed, along with notes on the routes' rich history and culture.

Originally from Melbourne, after graduating from university, Katrina Davis moved to Japan. Working as an adventure tour guide in Japan helped Kat develop her skills to seek out the local hotspots and also develop a love for hiking. 'A wise man climbs Mt Fuji, a fool climbs it twice' is a popular Japanese saying, so Kat climbed it 7 times. From Japan to Canada to London where Kat is now based, she quit her office job in 2013 to walk the Camino de Santiago and has never looked back. She has since completed seven Caminos and walked over 10,000km in Spain, Portugal, England, Italy, Japan and America, including the 4240km Pacific Crest Trail from Mexico to Canada.
