Here are some pictures taken during our Nakasendo Trail Trek in March 2025. The Nakasendo Trail crosses several villages that were part of the post-town path which linked Tokyo to Kyoto during the Edo period. We started the trail in Nakatsugawa and finished in Narai. We walked from Nakatsugawa to Magome, then from Magome to Tsumago, from Tsumago we walked part of the was to Kiso-Fukushima and we took a local train for the last part, and finally we walked from Kiso-Fukushima to Narai. The temperature was still a bit chilly especially in the morning and on the mountain passes! The walk was pleasant and the villages very picturesque. The shops in all of the villages except in Kiso, which is more of a town than a village, close very early (around 16:00), therefore plan to arrive before 16:00 to be able to browse around the shops. Also, there are almost no restaurants in these villages, so it is wise to book dinner at the guest house where you are planning to spend the night to avoid going hungry.
