Forest Therapy Tours

A therapeutic program set against the soothing backdrop of the forest

Forest therapy is a therapeutic program that takes you into the wilderness to experience the sights, smells, sounds, and textures it has to offer with your five senses, clearing your mind and restoring your energy.
Mount Koya is designated as a World Heritage Site for the sacred ground and temple paths it has in the Kii Mountains. These and other surrounding areas were designated as a Forest Therapy Site in 2007.
Our program lets you experience the history Koyasan has to offer and the nature on view at Mount Koya. We invite you to try it for yourself.
