Kyu Kobayashike Jutaku - At 9:30 am, join the guide at Musashi Itsukaichi Station before heading to Kobayashi family residence via public bus and monorail. The monorail was originally used for forestry and has a maximum slope of 43 °, so beware if you are afraid of heights.
Built in the first half of the 18th century, it is the oldest old house in Hinohara Village, and is registered as a nationally designated important cultural property.
You can go back to the time of thatched roofs and hearths, and remember the lives of people who lived in harmony with nature in the mountains of Tokyo. The Kobayashi family’s house is built on an open slope of Jinma Ridge at an altitude of 700 meters, so you can enjoy a spectacular view. After the tour, walk down the mountain for about 20 minutes and head to the bus stop.
