How are walking times calculated?

Walking times are estimated with a modified approach to Naismith’s rule to account for elevation gains/losses and other practical considerations that require a more conservative bias. The basis of our calculations assumes a speed of 4 kilometers per hour on flat land. Learn more here.

General Description: This hut is about 13.3 km from Enmyoji (T53), located in the expanded Kazahaya district of Matsuyama City (formerly Hojo City), within the grounds of Kama Daishido. The hut is a traditional temple style suitable for the temple grounds. The area around the hut is covered with transparent glass to prevent the northern wind in winter. On the top of the roof is a custom-made tile finial.

Kama Daishi is famous as the stage of “Hanahenro” by Aki Hayasaka, a local scriptwriter.

24/3/2023 Comments: The hut is located in the grounds of Kama Daishido. Three walls are half enclosed, partly with glass, with the wall facing the Daishido completely open. However, it is located in a compound and backs onto a modest wall which separates the hut from the village street which is the Henro Michi. It would be shady and well ventilated in hot weather. It would provide good shelter from any rain and would be not be subject to very much wind during bad weather. The street behind the hut would be quiet at most times.
