I Climbed Japan's Most INTENSE Mountain | Mt. Haku

- So I climbed one of Japan's three holy mountains, Mt. Haku, after learning more about Noh, Shintoism, and Japan's rich culture and history. After 10 hours of climbing up and down, muscle pain that I still feel today, and only a few hours of sleep, it was all worth it... Thanks to Harmonica Man! (and the beautiful nature of course)

So guys, what did you think of my climb up Mt. Haku? It looks amazing, right?
I’d like to say a big thank you to Takashiho San for inviting me on the tour and to none other than, Harmonica man!

Just left Kanazawa 2 weeks ago, I made sure that I tried Hakusan Nihonshu- Junmai Daiginjo of course. Simply the best - sweet on the palate without weird or unpleasant after taste (dry). It made Dasai or Hakkaisan feels overrated.
Oh wait... we are talking about Shira... I mean Haku-ya... I mean Hakusan the mountain? Man, Japanese is confusing.
Oh well.
Mr. Risottoro is back👏
Yes, and I will be back again

I have now saved this video hoping in about 2 years' time I can come back to Japan to do this hike. I've done Fuji so this and Tate will complete my goal of seeing and climbing the 3 holy mountains of Japan.
Thank you for putting Mt. Haku into your bucket list. You won't regret it.
The DPRK has its own famous volcano too called Mount Paektu. Mt. Paektu is an active supervolcano (stratovolcano with a truncated cone due to the caldera) located along the Chinese-DPRK border. It is the highest mountain in Korea and Manchuria. It is a volcano that has been very sacred to Koreans throughout history. Reaching the peak is a rite of passage for Koreans. According to mythology, it was the birthplace of Dangun, the founder of the first Korean kingdom Gojoseon, whose parents were said to be Hwanung (the son of Heaven) and Ungnyeo (a bear who had been transformed into a woman).
In 946 CE, one of the most powerful eruptions (second to be precise) in recorded history took place at Mt Paektu. It was a Plinian eruption with a 7 on the VEI (Volcanic Explosivity Index), the highest measure possible. Higher than the Krakatoa eruption of 1883 (which was a 6). The eruption ejected about 100 to 120 cubic kilometers of tephra and collapsed the mountain into a caldera, which now has the crater lake Heaven Lake. An average of about 5 cm of Plinian ashfall and Coignimbrite ashfall covered about 580,000 sq. miles all the way to Japan.
Yay Mr Risottoro! Glad you're well, loved the video. Giving me a Japan fix. My dream holiday destination 💜
Love it when a new Ryotaro video pops up... top class👌🏻
Great video as always!
SO COOL! I want to do something like this next time I am in Japan. I will buy you a beer for sure! Cheers, amigo ! 🍻
this is nice actually. less crowded and more peaceful than Mt Fuji. scenery looks beautiful indeed.
Mt fuji is absolutely breathtaking, but for me, I only queue for Ramen, not when I am climbing a mountain.
This is great! More please.
Awesome experience. Thanks for the video.
Wow, what an incredible hike! And the addition of the opera singer at the end was wonderful! As long as you believe in yourself, anything is possible! That's why I'm glad you pushed yourself to do this despite how tiring of an experience it must've been. As you said, we need to take the time to enjoy the little things in life, cherish every moment, and be thankful for what we have! Life doesn't have to be busy busy busy, working overtime. Instead of doing something they don't enjoy doing for the money, people should pursue a career they're passionate about, because what is the point if you have no passion or motivation for such?
The US has some interesting volcanoes as well! Like Mauna Loa in Hawaii which is the second largest volcano on the WHOLE planet (after Tamu Massif), covering a land area of 5,271 squared km/2,035 square miles and spans a maximum width of 120 km/75 miles. In Hawaiian, Mauna Loa means Long Mountain! Mauna Loa formed between 600,000 and 1 million years ago, making it a relative newcomer in the Hawaiian island chain, as the older islands are those in the northwestern chain. Mount St Helens is another interesting one, famous for its 1980 eruption that killed 57 people and destroyed 200 homes, 47 bridges, 15 miles/24 km of rail, and 185 miles/298 km of highway
Thank you for the lovely comment. I never expected this trekking tour to teach me such a perspective, but this is what makes it interesting.
Of course, I've been to Hawaii as an ordinary Japanese person, but I have not yet been to the volcano. So I definitely want to visit next time I go there. Thanks for the recommendation.
oh!! i was just in nearby Fukui a couple weeks ago and didn't know such a place existed.. i'll have to go back for this hike :)
Great video, definitely want to visit mount Haku next time I visit Japan.
Great to see another video, love the humour! Had me dying 🤣
And I loved the final conclusion :) thank you so much, Rissotoro! Hoping to see new videos from you!
Is this Chris’ favorite vid since he didn’t have to climb the mountain
i want to thank you because i solved a problem that I was trying to solve for weeks. While watching your video, i solved it
I would love to see more of these mountain hikes. I wanted to do Fuji, but the crowds look really bad so I'm looking for a good alternative.
Absolutely stunning, Ryotaro San. This was wonderful to watch. Thank you for your work👏👏
1:29 Oh that's a bit...too much volcano for me.
What a beautiful trek and so spiritual 🙏. Thank you for such a great video 🫶
Ryotaro has such an insane amount of RIZZ
Loved the opera singer.
Absolutely gorgeous view. I would love to do this tour if I ever make it to Japan. This is getting added to the ever-growing list of things to see.
Great video. I've recently moved to nagoya and was thinking of climbing mt Fuji next year. After watching this video I think I'll do mt haku instead!
The concept of Shinto, which resides deep within the Japanese psyche, is very unique, and it is unlike any other religion in the world. It is that God lives in all the things of this world, and we should be in awe of them, grateful for them, and honoured. They say that God lives in toilets too. That's why Japanese people keep toilets incredibly clean.
Hello, Risottoro. 👋👋
bloody good
I love the beautiful music parting the clouds 🌤
Training for next grand battle duel, struggle
Hakusan!! I miss Ishikawa
No understatement about the wonderful views, it looked spectacular. Only in Japan would they plant so many bonsai trees in the garden of the mountain hut!
Yousei Teikoku is Das Feenriche, The fairy empire. Is that Shinto? 🌸
Ryotaro keep it up. Can you do all the volcanos in Japan?
👍👍👍
Your production is getting better all the time!
This was a joy to watch!
Thank you for another inspiring video! I plan to visit Japan around that time so I'll try to sign up!
Beautiful video, thank you!
You should have brought Natsuki with you 😁
So happy you got to see the sunrise!
You are the best Ryotaro I know, the other one I know is Nonomura !!!!
Yes, might be good to go hill walking in Japan 👍 and good to see enjoyed yourself.
A hundred kilos Chris Abroad made me laugh so hard!!! haha nice one!
😌 this why I love your videos you leave nothing out.. thank you for such grate video
That scenery is gorgeous!
What a beautiful view 😍
Ryotaro - you are amazing!!! To participate such gruesome trek - 🤩
oh my god Ryo, when you coughed and i saw Chris i almost spit my cherry coke
Nice and intense >_
Ryotaro you're looking like a proper grandpa in this video ha ha
wow 3 days oO I climbed the Fuji within one night .... almost killed myself but yeah XD
at least most of those mountains have "proper" ways to walk, I was in Sri Lanka a few weeks ago and climbed the Pidurangala Mountain and at some points I was sure I am going to die there as it was so incredibly dangerous at some parts, my GF couldn't even make it as she wasn't flexible enough climbing some super high rocks.
Great video.
No explosion preference
I loved it!
*Shinto: 1 , Satan: 0*
What a trek. It was similar to the one that Chris Broad and with Natsuki climbed Mr. Fuji. I think it took them 3 days and 2 nights to accomplish. It looks like really rough terrain. I don't know about you but I don't think I would be able to make it. Did you have any problems with the altitude?
The trekking routes are well maintained and there is a rest house where you can get water every 500m, so I'm sure you can make it, too. Especially after witnessing an ex sumo wrestler made it to the top
This video looks really really good. Videographer knows what they are doing. Everything perfectly exposed, the lens gave you that 3D pop from the background, and distant landscape scenes had so much crispness and details. Wow. Well edited too with nothing jarring. Keep using your current team. No slight to Mr. Affable, but, your footage is so good compared to most of his.
You should have brought Mr. Affable, Chris Broad
It's such a relief to know that I'm a Kami
Me and Amaterasu are tight
That was nice thanks for sharing have a good one kanpai 🍻 🖖☮️💟🍀😜🤟🦋
Remember the dragon fly next time you get stressed out. :)
Comparing Chris to a sumo wrestler, what a mean friend lol.
Hole-y shit, it's Ryotaro the most powerful Kami!
I feel you walking so long in the mountains^^😅😊i also walk a lot on mountains offroad, mount gifu, mount shigi, snowy mountains of katsuyama, nara mountains, niimi mountains, few more😅
Sorry, Ryotaro. _Nothing_ is better than Mt. Fuji.
😎 ❤️
Great mountain to climb! I look forward to climb it one day. Curious on if there is a climbing season for Mt. Haku?
This is the Japan i would love to visit if I could. Thanks, Ryotaro! Also, the shrubs near the mountain hut are very well trimmed. Does the mountain have gardeners?
6:15 Japan ≠ Switzerland very correct 🤣
I will just honour the Kami of my bed. I offer myself to it about every night.
I laughed at the 100 kilos remark. That’s my average weight lol
Risottoro-san funnier than usual 💙💛
Need to get into shape first before going a hike like that. The Old guide with the Harmonica is doing that hike with a full pack like it’s nothing.
I being an out of shape westerner who uses his car to drive somewhere that can be walked in 30 minutes. I would be dead. 💀
for the algo
Leaving this here first to be no. 5 on the comments list, and come back with deep, philosophical insights on mountains with massive holes, after watching the whooooley video
15:32 😂😂😂 to do somthing that doesnt make sense. I m pretty sure thats not what he intended/ meant 😂😂
1:09 Is 💩 also kami?
Have you been to Tsushima Ryotaro?
Pfft, that's nothing. I once climbed Mt. Hiyori while wearing my motorcycle boots. Beat that, Ryotaro!
Naaa Chris actually did 2000m mountain with a pair sneakers and one of them had a hole lol. Beat that
Mmmmm Risotto very tasty
So you tryna beat Chris with a better sunset?😂😂😂 Hope Chris doesn't make a "top 10 ways to get yourself killed in Japan" video.
"no more worshipping Satan for me" LMAO
Lmao "no more worshiping satan for me."
Please buy better MIC, content is good but the voice over's voice quality is too low 😭
Hahaha better than mt. Fuji 😂😂😂
Worshipping satan? I didnf know chris had a side job..😂
