The First Step
The first thing you need to do is decide to get out there. Take your kids, set up a day with friends, or make a plan with co-workers.
Once you’ve made up your mind, you need to figure out where to go and how to get there. JMT can help you get out to the hills. For starters, check out our Chuo line guide: How to Get Out to the Tokyo Mountains.
