Tenri City Trail Center
21st Century
A place relax, learn, and make the path to your destination a little more fun.
Located along the Yamanobe-no-Michi path in Yanagimoto Town, the Tenri City Trail Center is a facility that helps us make the most of our time in the beautiful outdoors.
In addition to tourism information and a rest area, there is a corner of the facility that introduces history and culture, showers for people to refresh after a hike, a bike rack for road bikes, and a beautiful view from the deck.
There are also meals made with local ingredients, and a corner where we can buy drinks, snacks, and a variety of local specialty products. The front desk has Nordic walking poles to rent for free, so if they will make your walk more enjoyable, please feel free to use them.
There is also a tourism concierge present, so whether you are trekking on the Yamanobe-no-Michi path, cycling around the tourist spots, or embarking on some mountain climbing up Mt. Ryuo, this is a great place to get lots of tourism information!
Weekends in spring and autumn are usually lively with hikers, but the Tenri City Trail Center is open to all visitors, year-round.
For a short visit to get essentials or a longer break to refresh, the Tenri City Trail Center is a place we recommend stopping by when you visit Time Travel City.
