See in the New Year in Japanese style by watching the sunrise and eating o-zouni (or zenzai) on the summit of Mt. Maya!
There will be almost a full moon on the night of 31st December, so should be plenty of light for this early morning hike.
Meet at Hankyu Ojikoen station at 04:00 a.m.
2 hour steady climb to the summit of Mt Maya (698.6m)
Prepare hot o-zouni while waiting for the sun to rise at 07:06 a.m.
Afterwards hike down the mountain (about 90 mins) for breakfast.
Take: hiking boots, warm clothing including hat and gloves, rainwear, flashlight, small personal first-aid kit, survival blanket, snacks, hot drink
Please sign up by Friday 29th December.
