Hostelling Information

Hostelling in Japan

Be amazed by hi–tech innovation and architecture; hike through deep forests; soak in hot springs; drink sake; see an intricate performance of sumo wrestling; learn how to eat sushi politely. The four main islands of Japan present a great variety of landscapes and attractions. Hokkaido offers walking and even skiing in the Daisetsuzan National Park, with its mountains, volcanoes, lakes and forests; Honshu boasts the modern wonders of Tokyo, the ancient temples and gardens of Kyoto and the stunning seascapes of the Noto–Hanto Peninsula; Shikoku is a window into Japan's rural heritage, with farmlands and orange groves as well as Samurai castles; and Kyushu provides spectacular mountain scenery and active volcanoes in the Kirishima National Park. With a vast network of hostels, there is enormous scope for exploring this richly packed country - and accommodation varies from modern buildings to facilities at Buddhist temples and Shinto shrines.
