Japan travel guide

Japan - Shikoku (Chapter)

This is the Shikoku chapter from Lonely Planet's Japan guidebook.

Japan's fourth largest island is synonymous with natural beauty and the pursuit of spiritual perfection. The 88-temple route is Japan's most famous pilgrimage, even if a number of henro (pilgrims) today make the clockwise trek in air-conditioned comfort.

  • hike up sacred Ishizuchi-san, one of Japan's most gripping ascents
  • maps
  • find rugged seclusion, if not enlightenment, like Kōbō Daishi did at Muroto-misaki
  • transport
  • surf world-class waves at Ohkihama, one of Japan's best beaches, then paddle down the beautiful Shimanto-gawa
  • restaurants & accommodation

Coverage includes: Tokushima Prefecture & around, Iya Valley, Kōchi Prefecture & around, Ashizuri-Misaki, Ehime Prefecture, Uwajima, Matsuyama & around, Kagawa Prefecture, and Takamatsu & around.
