I have visited Hakone many times, but this time I requested a guide and went for a stroll. It was wonderful to leisurely walk while listening to enjoyable stories about the trees, birds, and animals in Hakone. I highly recommend it when you have some free time. The guide was friendly and great. Next time I come to Hakone, I would like to request a light hike.箱根は何度も来ていますが、今回はガイドさんをお願いして、散策してみました。
箱根の木々、鳥、動物等いろいろ楽しく話を聞きながら、のんびりと散策が出来て
最高でした。時間に余裕がある時はおすすめです。ガイドさんも気さくで、
よかったです。
次回また箱根に来たときは、軽いハイキングをお願いしたいと思います。

Due to the restrictions on going out during the COVID-19 pandemic, I felt a lack of exercise and participated in a walking tour. The guide from Hakone was friendly and explained various plants, flowers, and birds native to Hakone, as well as shared other walking routes, making it a very interesting experience beyond just walking.

We took a break by Lake Ashi; although the weather was cloudy, the breeze was very pleasant. The route was about an hour from the meeting point at the visitor center, and after the tour, I relaxed in a hot spring in Hakone, followed by a beer that was exceptional! It turned out to be a fulfilling holiday, different from my usual routine. Next, I would like to try a trekking tour. コロナ禍の外出自粛により、運動不足を感じておりウォーキングツアーに参加してきました。箱根出身のガイドさんは気さくな方で箱根に生息している草木花や鳥について色々説明してくださったり、他のウォーキングのコースを教えてくださったり、ただ歩くだけではない大変興味深いウォーキングとなりました。途中休憩は芦ノ湖畔で、天気は曇り空でしたが、風が大変気持ちよかったです。集合場所であるビジターセンターから1時間ほどのルートでしたが、ツアーが終わった後は箱根の温泉で汗を流し、その後のビールはまた格別!で普段とは違う… コロナ禍の外出自粛により、運動不足を感じておりウォーキングツアーに参加してきました。箱根出身のガイドさんは気さくな方で箱根に生息している草木花や鳥について色々説明してくださったり、他のウォーキングのコースを教えてくださったり、ただ歩くだけではない大変興味深いウォーキングとなりました。途中休憩は芦ノ湖畔で、天気は曇り空でしたが、風が大変気持ちよかったです。集合場所であるビジターセンターから1時間ほどのルートでしたが、ツアーが終わった後は箱根の温泉で汗を流し、その後のビールはまた格別!で普段とは違う充実した休日となりました。次はトレッキングツアーに参加してみたいです。

I learned that Hakone has attractions beyond just hot springs. The guide was friendly, and it was enjoyable. I would like to experience Hakone's nature again.温泉だけじゃない、箱根の魅力を知ることがでしました。ガイドさんは気さくな方で、楽しかったです。また箱根の自然を体験したいと思いました。
