The Tokai Nature Trail is a 1,697km-long nature trail spanning 11 prefectures, from Meiji-no-Mori Takao Quasi-National Park in Hachioji City, Tokyo, to Meiji-no-Mori Minoo Quasi-National Park in Minoo City, Osaka Prefecture.

As I have a regular job, I can't take a long vacation to complete the entire trail in one go, and unfortunately, I don't have the physical stamina for that. However, fortunately, the Tokai Nature Trail is divided into several "courses," so I thought that by walking them in "segments," completing the entire trail in the end might not be an impossible dream. Therefore, I decided to try this project.

I have many anxieties, such as how many years it will take and whether my body will hold up by then, but since I'm currently 57 years old, I think it's a pretty good hobby to enjoy after retirement. (April 18, 2020)　(Nihedon @ KesaranPasaran Lab)
