Absolutely wonderful — 5 stars. Our autumn forest-bathing hike to the serene temple in Odawara was unforgettable. Aki, our guide, was incredibly knowledgeable about the local flora and temple history, and balanced informative stories with peaceful moments of silence. He was professional, very accommodating (even bringing snacks for everyone), and took stunning photos that truly highlighted the vibrant fall colors and the temple’s quiet beauty. I highly recommend this trip to anyone visiting Odawara in autumn — it felt restorative, well-organized, and beautifully documented.
Forest Bathing - Saijo-Ji Temple - wonder guide Akihiro

Just a wonderful time with our guide, Akihiro (https://coconutshikejapan.com/) who took us to a beautiful temple Saijo-ji (https://daiyuuzan.or.jp/) about 30 mins from Odawara station in Hakone. We went on a 2k walk up a gentle slope to the temple, and even though it was a holiday, the walk and temple were not crowded, only a few other people. And the leaves were in peak season with brilliant bursts of color. We felt like we were pilgrims walking up the path, isolated in a forest, and then reaching the temple with its beautiful colors and substantial buildings. Definitely worth the walk! Forest Bathing - this is a term for just inhaling the nature and trees along the trail to refresh the body and soul - it works! We appreciated the leaves and lack of crowds when we went to Kyoto two days later - where we decided not to go to some temples because of the crowds Akihiro is an experienced guide, who grew up in Hakone often just miles from our hike and also has over 20 years guiding travelers into hikes and camping. He served us coffee and snacks at the top. We learned about the forest, the trail and the temple on our way up the mountain. His English skills are excellent and he was a good companion on the walk explaining nuances of the forest and the temple's history. Finally, he took pictures of us on our walk which reflected his skill as a photographer (later uploaded to us on Google Drive). Our hike culminated in a discrete tea house "Jinoma" at the foot of the trails, serving a vegetarian meal and tea and sweets. What a magical end to the temple visit! Definitely one of the highlights of our 2 week Japan visit. Beauty, leaves like fire against a green background, and a true sense of Buddhist tranquility.

I visited in October and joined Akihiro for a “forest bath” hike near Odawara—it was everything I hoped for! The other participants canceled, so it became a private tour, which made the peaceful, scenic hike even better. Akihiro’s knowledge of the area and history was excellent, lunch at a local teahouse was delicious, and ending the day with a relaxing onsen soak was absolute bliss. A perfect escape from the city—highly recommend!
Phenomenal experience!

We had a fantastic time on our forest bath. Akihiro is very knowledgeable and great at telling the stories of the rich history of Hakone. My wife and I saw many beautiful scenes and got great pictures taken of us! We absolutely loved the entire experience. If you’re staying near Hakone (we were in Odawara and it’s a short train ride away) I fully recommend this. Thank you Mr. Akihiro for the great day!

We had a very pleasant gentle climb through the light dappled forest of cedar and cypress. We visited a working zen Buddhist temple set in beautiful gardens, and then had lunch followed by a relaxing soak in the onsen. Aki was a very informative host and took good care of us, even providing chocolates and a selection of hot drinks including green tea and lattes. Highly recommended.
Amazing Experience!

The hike was incredible with gorgeous scenery. Our tour guide had a great knowledge of the area and the temple we were visiting. It was easy to keep pace, and our tour guide didn't push us to do anything we would find difficult. The tour guide was extremely friendly and easy to get along with as well.
Go to Odawara and take this tour!

Akihiro-san was an experienced guide and tailored it to my interest (I was the only one on this hike). He is knowledgable of the mountain, the cedar forest and the stories of the temple. It was hot and humid during summer but I can imagine how this would be completely different in Spring or with the Autumn colors. I would definitely come again. And yes, the onsen was the perfect end to the day!
