Kyoto Trail Kitayama Western Course: Takagamine via Sawa-no-ike and Takao to Kiyotaki

京都一周トレイル北山西部コース 鷹峯〜沢ノ池〜高雄〜清滝

A walked section of the Kyoto Trail's Kitayama Western Course: by bus from Kitaoji to Takagamine, then via Kaminomizu Pass, Sawa-no-ike Pond and Takao to Kiyotaki, about 8.4 km and roughly 5 hours, through Kitayama cedar forest and the Kiyotaki River gorge. Officially, a short stretch from Kaminomizu Pass to marker 79 is currently closed due to slope collapse and must be bypassed via the Tokai Nature Trail; some clay surfaces are slippery, and there are no public toilets before Takao.
