What you can expect

  • Experience a unique blend of adventure and tradition on this private Ninja Trekking Tour, exploring one of Kyoto’s revered power spots. This journey introduces you to the comprehensive art of ninjutsu, which includes survival skills, body control, breathing techniques, meditation, and the wisdom of mountain walking. Guided by experts in both ninjutsu and mountain trekking, you’ll learn practical skills once used by ancient warriors, all while surrounded by the natural beauty of Kyoto.

    Your adventure begins at Keage, near the historic Nanzen-ji Temple. As you ascend the gentle slopes of Mt. Daimonji (Nyoigatake), you’ll practice essential ninjutsu techniques—mindful breathing, body manipulation, and meditation—designed to deepen your connection with nature and enhance your resilience. The 7.5km route is paced for beginners, allowing you to enjoy the tranquil forest, panoramic city views, and the spiritual atmosphere of the Higashiyama 36 Peaks.

    Along the way, pause for moments of reflection and guided meditation, learning how these mountains have inspired centuries of seekers. The trek concludes with a scenic descent to Ginkaku-ji, the iconic Silver Pavilion, where you can continue your exploration of Kyoto’s cultural treasures at your own pace.
