But with so many routes, passes, and accommodation options, deciding where to start can be overwhelming. This guide covers everything you need, based on <strong>an actual 2-day trip in September 2024</strong>.</p> <blockquote> <p>For the full trip story, see → <a class="link" href="https://firebird-techtalktech.com/post/2024-09-21-hakone-trip-en/" >Hakone 2-Day Trip Report: Hiking the Old Tokaido Road and a French Dinner at Hotel Biore</a></p>https://firebird-techtalktech.com/post/2024-09-21-hakone-trip-en/Thu, 12 Nov 2026 12:25:00 +0900https://firebird-techtalktech.com/post/2024-09-21-hakone-trip-en/<p>&ldquo;If we go to Hakone, I want to walk the old road.&rdquo; That one line was all it took to set the plan in motion. September 27–28, 2024: one night in Hakone, Kanagawa, reached by Romancecar express from Shinjuku. Instead of the ropeway or the pirate ship cruise on Lake Ashi, the main attraction for this trip was <strong>walking an actual stretch of the Old Tokaido Road—the stone-paved path that has remained almost unchanged since the Edo period.</strong></p>
