I started my exploration of this gorge at 11am and was pleasantly surprised by how accessible it was. The walkway was occasionally paved and only narrow at certain points. There were also frequent signs and kilometre markers to let you know where you stand on the trail. In fact, I found myself thinking that with a little effort, this might even be one of the few nature trails accessible to a person in wheelchair, at least up until the tea house about halfway into the gorge. The scenery was nice and I liked the tranquility, but I imagined the place would be more beautiful in the fall when the surrounding trees take on a shade of auburn. I took my time strolling along the path and reached the tea house around 1pm. After that, I continued on to the red bridge where I detoured into the namakumo river to visit one of the attractions featured. Sadly, that path was closed and disused so I couldn’t get much further in. I did startle a roaming wild boar for my effort. I re-crossed the red bridge and went back onto the main path, spotted a lazy snake on the way and reached the end of the trail about 2.30pm. Not wanting to be caught here after sundown, I turned back and headed back up the trail at a faster pace, arriving at the tea house again at 3.15pm. Ate some snacks I brought and chilled at the picturesque veranda until 3.45pm, after which I continued on and reached the entrance of the gorge again around 4.45pm.
