What To Expect
Mt. Inunaki
Mount Inunaki, shrouded in ancient mystique, stands as a testament to Japan’s spiritual heritage. Recently hailed as the cradle of Shugen-do, a syncretic mountain asceticism, this revered peak offers more than just a climb; it is a journey through time and tradition. Here, amidst the whispering forests and cascading waterfalls, practitioners continue the age-old ritual of waterfall meditation, connecting with the profound energy of the land. Just a short 35-minute bus ride from Izumisano station transports you to this otherworldly retreat. Whether you’re a pilgrim of the soul or an adventurer at heart, Mount Inunaki’s sacred trails await to enchant and inspire. Come, embrace the allure of a mountain that has captivated seekers for millennia.
Embark on a spiritual journey at Mt. Inunaki, where the ancient practice of Shugen-do comes to life. This unique form of mountain asceticism, guided by seasoned practitioners, invites you to immerse yourself in the sacred ritual of takigyo—waterfall meditation. Unlike the secluded Mt. Omine, Mt. Inunaki’s inclusive spirit welcomes both men and women, proudly known as “Nyonin Omine” (Women’s Omine), offering a rare opportunity for all to experience this transformative tradition. Connect with nature, challenge your limits, and find inner peace in the serene embrace of Mt. Inunaki’s cascading waters.

5.00It is hard to have an experience, although climbing the mountain is really hard, but it is a chance that life is only one time to bury together to see it is really shocking.
Stay in the rainy waterfall and freeze
