[QUOTE="GuyA, post: 1028191, member: 9613"] In March 2015 I was very fortunate and walked approximately 70 kms on the Kumano Kodo from Takijiri-oji to Nachisan. It was an incredible walk through the Kii Peninsula Mountains. As luck would have it the Dual Pilgrim designation was introduced in January 2015 so when I walked on Day 3 into the Kumano Hongu Taisha office where I had my 15 minutes of fame. At the time a Dual Pilgrim...one who has walked the Way of St. James and Kumano Kodo...the two Unesco recognized pilgrimage routes was a rare event. I was the 5th recipient and 1st Canadian of the Dual Pilgrim designation...so the Kumano Hong Taisha office folks were really excited! Supposedly my picture is in some display in Taisha office however I have never received confirmation of such. Be sure to have your Way of St. James Compostela with you. [B]Practical information [/B]- route is super interesting...at times it is pretty tough but exhilarating walking. A super helpful website is [URL="http://www.tb-kumano.jp"]www.tb-kumano.jp[/URL] which is where I was able to pre-book all accommodation through them at traditional Japanese inns along the route. It was a very smooth process. Finally if you want additional info I included 6 blog postings in my Camino blog... [URL="http://www.caminolongwalk.blogspot.com"]www.caminolongwalk.blogspot.com[/URL]. On the right hand side go to Blog Archive...then 2015 March and there are 6 postings...pictures and various thoughts. Happy planning...it will be a fantastic walk! Guy [/QUOTE]
