Well everyone, I'm back in the most underrated area of Japan and I'm STILL discovering more and more amazing locations to visit. This area is just filled with hidden gems! No joke, I've actually already started planning my next trip here in April ;)

Thank you Huber Inc. and Totsukawa Tourism for sponsoring this trip!

Public Transport:

To get to Totsukawa Village, take the train to Kintetsu-Nara station and catch a bus from there to Totsukawa.

Bus schedules for the village can be found here*:

For Dorokyo Gorge, the bus stop is called Dorohaccho and leaves from Totsukawa Village Office. There are however, only 2 buses a day (12:08 & 16:03) going to Dorohaccho and 3 buses a day leaving from there (07:01, 13:14 & 14:25) so plan your route carefully. The bus takes 1 hour & 6 mins and costs 1,090yen.
