You'll pass through some rugged coastline and also some calmer waters perfect for a swim in warmer weather. Finish at the Wakura Onsen town and enjoy a well-earned soak in the famous hot springs while sampling some of the local delicacies.

The Kenroku garden is classified as one of Japan's 'three most beautiful landscape gardens.' One visit and you'll soon realise why.

Rock Formations

The Noto Kongo Coast has some very sacred rock formations to check out. Don't miss the Ganmon and Hatago Iwa - about 30km north of the town Hakui.

Shiroyone Senmaida

The Shiroyone Senmaida is a majestic view of a thousand paddy fields on the steep coastal slopes. Catch the illumination in the evening if lucky.
