- Unazuki Onsen - Travel from Kanazawa to Unazuki Onsen station. This town’s architecture is similar to how it was when it was started as an onsen resort town 100 years ago. We will explore some of the more interesting spots like the healing Buddha and footbaths and then head out for a short walk to get views of the town, bridges, and gorge in the area. Some of those amazing pictures were taken on this very walking route. - Kurobe Gorge - Meet up at Unazuki Onsen Station to get ready for the trolley train. There isn’t any designated time for lunch so either eat during your free time in the town or bring a bento or onigiri on the train to eat. There are shops near the station too so now is a great time to grab something. Arrive at Keyakidaira Station, the last stop on the line. We are truly in the middle of the mountains now. There will be some time to stretch, go to the bathroom, and eat some more snacks before we start to walk around the area. - Sarutobi Canyon - We will start our exploration of the area by heading to the “Monkey Jumping Bridge” and then the Onsen River footbaths. The second half of the walk includes walking across another scenic gorge and under some interesting rock formations. After a full day of taking in nature, it’s time to go back to the station and begin our way back. - Unazuki Onsen - Hop on the train back to Unazuki Onsen and get a second chance at seeing all of the amazing scenery from the trolley. Try to find some new views that you couldn’t before! After that ride, we will also take the train back to Shin-Kurobe station. There is some time between the transfer if you need to buy anything or go to the bathroom. Arrival at Shin-Kurobe Station. We will walk over to the Kurobe-Unazuki Onsen shinkansen stop across the street where the tour will officially end for some. Have a safe trip back to your hotel! For the rest of the group, we will catch the next train to Kanazawa. The Shinkansen arrives at Kanazawa Station. This is the final goodbye of the day. If you need any recommendations for your time in Kanazawa, feel free to ask your guide!
