Kumano Kodo is a UNESCO World Heritage pilgrimage route that has been walked for over a thousand years, it perfectly embodies the Root Adventures mission of "walking with intention."

For over a millennium, pilgrims from all walks of life have traveled the mist-shrouded trails of the Kii Peninsula.They come seeking purification and a chance to be "ritually reborn" in the sacred mountains of Japan.
