* It is ideal to wear good hiking or trekking shoes but sneakers with thick sole may be OK.
* A day-pack in which you want to have some snacks, sandwiches, drink bottle, change cloths etc.
* Cap or hat
* Sun-Glasses
* A pair of globes(in winter)
* Since this is a trekking or mountaineering weather condition really matter. When it rains or snows we need to cancel the tour.
* The view along the trail or at the top of Mt. Takao depends on weather.
Since this is mountain trekking do or don't will depend on weather. When it rains or snows the tour will be cancelled. Also view and visibility along the trail and at some view point on Mt. Takao depends on the weather. The chances that you will have a clear view of the mountain are high in cold seasons.
I will be always available any time if I am given a reasonable advance notice.
