What other travelers are saying about Dakesawa Marshland
Beautiful view point and walking trail surrounding in general. The northern trail to Myojin bridge is longer than the southern trail because of the additional distance to walk through this marsh area but definitely worth the extra distance. Running water sound from the river makes the trail even more enjoyable. Because of the marsh, there are more plank walking vs walking on the ground in the southern trail.

Enjoyed the hike, the birds Chirping, the sound of the running stream. The trees and the ions of the area. lol took longer time than others to complete due to arthritis on both knees. But still it is worth it. Note last bus timing.
