Natural mushroom specialty store at the foot of Mt. Fuji ‘Yama-raku’ in Yamanashi
I will introduce my recently discovered favorite natural mushroom specialty store.
This shop is a specialty shop of natural mushrooms, unusual mushrooms that are not available at supermarkets are sold side by side at the shop front. I also examined it later, it seems to be introduced on TV many times so far.
I bought a mushroom pack for mushroom soup, a woman clerk kindly taught me how to cook, and finally gave me a recipe printed on paper.
When I stop by at the foot of Mt.Fuji from now on, I definitely want to visit this shop again.

How to make natural mushroom soup
Natural mushroom specialty store at the foot of Mt. Fuji ‘Yama-raku’ in Yamanashi
The following is a recipe of natural mushroom soup that I was taught by a clerk of “San-raku” of a mushroom specialty shop.
Natural mushroom
Please immerse in thin salt water for 20 minutes, this is to remove insects just in case. Wipe each mushroom with a damp cloth or with kitchen paper towel and only do this as need to remove dirt and debris.
Gently rinse the saltwater with tap water to remove dirt.
Cut the mushrooms and put it in a boiling pot and boil for a while.
When the pot boils, ash will appear and carefully remove it.
Seasoning is okay with your preference, I seasoned with miso or soy sauce because I am Japanese.
Since natural mushrooms get good soup stock, adding other seasonings and seasonings is unnecessary.
Please enjoy the grace of nature.

Map of “Sengen-One” course
Clicking the image will display the enlarged size with a new tab.
Access
“Tomin-no-mori” is the entrance of a trail to Mt. Mitou popular with hikers. Hiking routes are stretched all around in this area, but let’s proceed to “Kaze-hari-touge 風張峠” in this area.
JR Musashi-Itsukaichi Line End · From Musashi-Itsukaichi Station, take the West Tokyo bus to “Tomin-no-Mori Bus Stop 都民の森 バス停” for about 1 hour and 10 minutes.
On the way back, “the Hossawa no taki iriguchi bus stop払沢の滝入口 バス停” is used.
Or if you move to “Moto-shuku-yakubamae bus stop 本宿役場前 バス停”, the number of buses is large.
There is a free parking lot in “the Hossawa no taki iriguchi 払沢の滝入口”.
ADVICE
There is no public drinking fountain to the end of the course.
However, since there is a shop, vending machine, and toilet in the starting point “Tomin – no – Mori”, you can prepare here for running.
There is a lot of escape route to paved road called Hinohara – Kaidou in the way of Sengen – One, so beginners are safe course.
Features of “Sengen-One” course
The origin of the name of the ridge, “Sengen-One Ridge” is the highlight of the course.
This course is known to special people, you can down hill like crazy.
If you are thinking that “climing is the best part of trail running”, “You have ups and downs in life”, for such a trail runner, this course can not be recommended. (I’m sorry)
Because the bus carries you to a high place, the course is generally in descending and on the way it is a runable trail with a flat part of about 5 km.
Therefore this course will be the best course for your trail running debut in Tokyo.
First of all,
Depending on the signpost in “Tomin-no-mori” you will go to “Saiguchi-Touge 鞘口峠”
It’s just a fine climb up to your warm-up.
Let’s proceed from “Saiguchi-Touge 鞘口峠” to “Kaze-hari-Touge 風張峠”.
As you go about 1.5 km, if the signpost of “Sengen-One 浅間尾根” appears, proceed to “Sengen-One 浅間尾根” direction.
Let’s move carefully since there are parts where the trail around here is collapsing.
Once you leave the paved road and enter the trail again, the downhill of “Sengen-One Asama Ridge” will begin.
Because this trail is easy to run anyway, it is a satisfying course for those who want to run alone, those who want to enjoy at their own pace, both types of people.
Furthermore, since there are many escape routes and signs are substantial, I really recommend it for debuting trail running in Tokyo.
It is certainly inconvenient that the bus is indispensable to the starting point of the trail, but thanks to that, the course has few people crowded.
Moreover, it is mostly gentle downhill, mostly single track, you can monopolize luxurious course.
Perhaps you will face your face with your colleagues and say “Feel so good!”
After running…
Hinohara-Tofu Chitose-ya
Tofu store in front of “Hossawa no taki iriguchi bus stop”.
Tofu using Hinohara’s source water and Hokkaido soybean is a rich flavor.
We also recommend popular menu fried donuts and soy milk, both of which are 100 yen.

・Mt. Fuji magnificent view
・Ice hole created about 1,000 years ago
・Mysterious and beautiful Aokigahara Jukai
・Hot spring while watching Mt. Fuji
Jukai’s running course :
jukai
The Aokigahara Jukai is a vast primitive forest spreading over Lake Motosu, Lake Saiko, Lake Shoujin, which is the foot of Mount Fuji.
On this day I started from the side of Lake Motosu, passed by Lake Shoujin, stopped by ice hole and the highlight looked at Lake Saiko from Kouyoudai.
I could completely relax at the goal’s hot spring, because in this hot spring I can soaking in a natural hot water while looking at the magnificent view of Mt.Fuji.
A landscape with 300 years old trees such as fir and beech growing on the lava flows is beautiful and you can enjoy a mysterious sight as if you landed on another planet that is not the earth.
If you believe that you get lost if you go to Jukai it is a mistake.
The hiking road is well maintained and easy to understand and it is not easy to get lost as it is installed along the national highway.
People who are likely to get lost are people who ignore hiking roads for the purpose of collecting mushrooms and wild plants.
There are some ancient ice holes in jukai.
The Narusawa ice hole which I visited that day is a natural cave that was created about 1,000 years ago and you can experience the world of ice with an average annual temperature of 3 degrees.
If you will visit at Jukai for trail running, you can cool down your body that burned for the running at this ice hole.
Also,
On Kouyoudai, you may be able to see the magnificent view of Mt.Fuji that is colored with autumn leaves. (If you visit in early November. )
Since the goal is a hot spring, you can take a return trip after healing the tired body slowly.

Although there are some ups and downs, it is a relatively flat road of about 15 km.
This course is recommended for your trail running debut.
