The distance between temple 23 and 24 is around 75 kilometers. The path continues south along the east side of this island heading towards Muroto. Today was my first day walking solo as Philip decided to take a rest day and just take the train to the next stop. I walked just under 25 miles putting the total distance up to 140.01 miles (224k)
Here they make their logs out of concrete as well. I had to really look closely to even notice, but they seem to hold up well.
I could only assume this is someone’s residence
All along this coast, I’m seeing these big concrete walls and flood gates cutting across roads and river openings. At first it feels a little over the top… but after looking closer, I realized it’s not. This part of Shikoku sits right along the Nankai Trough, where big earthquakes can send water moving fast. These gates are there to shut things off and slow it down, buying people time to get to higher ground.
If you look closely, you will see that part of my trail eroded and fell to the ocean
These little arrows are what I spend a lot of my day looking for. Sometimes they’re obvious, and many times they’re not very well placed. The app with gps is almost a must unless you want to walk a few hundred extra miles
