It turned out to be a wonderful day—completely different from the previous day’s rain—and perfect weather for excursions and fieldwork for the students.
At 9:30 a.m., 22 students and 3 teachers from the Canadian International School were welcomed in front of Takaosanguchi Station by 9 TENGU staff members. While one teacher went ahead to Kiyotaki Station to purchase cable car tickets in bulk, the students were divided into three groups according to the school’s pre-arranged plan. Each student was given a simple sticker name tag, and after a brief orientation, the groups made their way to Kiyotaki Station.
The area in front of Kiyotaki Station was extremely crowded with what appeared to be elementary school excursion groups. Navigating through the crowd, we provided explanations about the Osouji Kozō statue, basic tour rules, and the flying squirrel statue. After that, Group A took the chairlift, while Groups B and C took the cable car.
By around 10:20 a.m., all groups had disembarked and begun their tours. The route followed Trail No. 1, passing through Yūki-en and Yakuō-in Temple. Along the way, we included fun activities such as a snack break at Gongen-Chaya and trying fortune slips (omikuji) in the temple grounds. With these enjoyable elements, we reached the summit around noon.
The summit was crowded with groups of kindergarten and elementary school students on excursions, so participants had lunch individually. At 1:00 p.m., everyone reassembled at the summit. After taking a group photo, we began the descent in groups again, this time via Trail No. 4 and its suspension bridge.
We regrouped in front of Kiyotaki Station at around 2:30 p.m., where the tour concluded and participants were dismissed.
Thank you very much to the teachers for all their support. Everyone at TENGU had a great time spending the day with the students, and we were delighted to share this experience with them.
