A local would say...

Walk among thousand-year-old cedars on accessible boardwalks — the low-effort way to experience Yakushima's primeval forest.

For those who want to experience ancient yakusugi cedar forest without committing to an all-day death march, Yakusugi Land offers shorter courses over wooden boardwalks through the ancient trees, with longer options heading deeper into the primeval forest. You'll walk among giants — towering cedars draped in moss and ferns — in a setting that feels impossibly old. The boardwalks make it accessible for families and less experienced hikers, while the deep forest trails deliver real wilderness. Four daily buses connect to Anbo.
