Kurama - 鞍馬 - Kibune – Kibuneyama - Ninose 2018-08-09 9:39
(català - english)

La caminada de Kurama-Kibune és tot un clàssic. Amb tren des de Kyoto arribes amb molta facilitat. Si la fas en aquest sentit, des de Kurama, pots arribar a menjar a les terrasses de Kibune que tenen sobre el riu (realment original) i si ho fas al revés, desde Kibune, pots anar a fer un bany al Onsen anomenat Kurama Hot Spring (cal portar roba de recanvi, doncs després de caminar amb aquesta calor, estàs tot xop).

Jo tenia interès en no tan sols fer la part més turística, i enfilar-me per les muntanyes. Fet el tram de Kurama a Kibune, vistos els temples, els arbres monumentals, els restaurants amb terrasses i el darrer temple sintoista de Kibune, he continuat per la carretera asfaltada (sense ni un cotxe) fins trobar el començament del corriolet que remunta un torrent.

Aquest corriolet està senyalitzat (tot i que totes les indicacions estan en japonès), però cal dir que té trams amb cordes, molts arbres caiguts i alguns trams de camí desapareguts probablement per recents esllavissades per les riuades. En aquesta pujada cal tenir un cert sentit de l’orientació i no relliscar entre tanta roca i aigua. Precisament pensant en aquest tram de pujada, he classificat aquesta ruta de "difícil", la resta del camí és molt fàcil. A dalt de tot el corriol es fa més evident i fàcil de resseguir, vas carenejant. En tot aquesta segona part del camí, des de Kibune, tan sols he saludat a un altre caminador, ja pràcticament a arribant a Ninose. Finalment arribes al poblet de Ninose on pots agafar de nou el tren (pagant al final del trajecte).

M’he trobat amb moltes granotes, un cent peus de color negre i vermell realment gran (que havia atrapat quelcom per menjar), una serp que m’ha creuat (diria que no era un escurçó), libèl·lules, papallones gegants (semblen ocells)...

Si voleu fer una caminada en família podeu fer el tram Kurama - Kibune, si voleu perdre-us pel bosc, tan sols cal continuar fins a Ninose.

Salut i Cames!!

The "Kurama-Kibune trek" is a classic. By train from Kyoto you arrive very easily. If you do it in this way, from Kurama you can get to eat on the Kibune terraces that have on the river (really original) and if you do the other way around, from Kibune you can go for a bath in the Onsen called Kurama Hot. Spring (you need to wear spare clothes, because after walking in this heat, you're all soaked).

I was interested in not only doing the most touristy part, but also climbing the mountains. Having made the stretch from Kurama to Kibune, seeing temples, monumental trees, restaurants with terraces and the last Shinto temple in Kibune, I continued on the paved road (without a car) until I found the beginning of the path that goes up a stream .

This path is signposted (although all indications are in Japanese), but it must be said that it has strings, many fallen trees, and some missing paths probably due to recent landslides. In this ascent you have to have a certain sense of orientation and not slip between so much rock and water. Just thinking of this ascent, I have classified this route as "difficult", the rest of the way is very easy. Above all the path becomes more evident and easier to follow, you go ridge. In all this second part of the road, from Kibune, I only greeted another walker, already almost reaching Ninose. Finally you arrive at the village of Ninose where you can take the train again (paying at the end of the journey).

I have encountered a lot of frogs, one hundred feet really big black and red (I had caught something to eat), a snake that crossed me (I'd say it wasn't a viper), dragonflies, giant butterflies ( they look like birds) ...

If you want to take a family hike you can take the Kurama - Kibune stretch, if you want to get lost in the woods, just continue on to Ninose.
