Inunakisan
Mt. Inunaki is regarded as one of the oldest sacred mountains in Japan. According to recent historical research and advances in the academic study of Shugen-do, Mt. Inunaki is now considered the birthplace of Shugen-do. We hike up this mountain and waterfall practice. About 35 minutes bus transportation from Izumisano station to Mt. Inunaki and its return transportation is included in the tour duration.
3 hours

Shipporyuji Temple Hondō
We visit the Shiporyuji temple and do the Goma ceremony, a Mountain Asceticism known as “Shugen-do.” Goma means “to burn” in Sanskrit. As fire burns away everything on the ground, including even defilement and worldly desires, it is believed to be sacred. We offer your wishes at the “Gomadan” altar by making a holy fire in front of Honzon (principal image of Buddha), Kurikara Fudo Myo-o.
