Yusakamichi

Before the Edo period (1603–1867), when the Tokaido highway was the main route through Hakone, travelers would use the ancient Yusakamichi road to cross this mountainous region. Established in the ninth century, the path begins at Hakone-Yumoto and traverses the hilly landscape of central Hakone before beginning a long descent toward Ashinoyu and Hakone Shrine. On the way, it passes Shojingaike, a pond known for the many stone Buddhist statues sculpted by people hoping for divine protection from the dangers of the road. In 1180, Minamoto no Yoritomo (1147–1199), the samurai lord who sought refuge at Hakone Shrine after his defeat in a battle against the mighty Taira family, traveled over the Yusakamichi. Yoritomo eventually reassembled his army, crushed the Taira, and in 1185 established the Kamakura shogunate, which was to maintain de facto control over Japan for almost 150 years. Yoritomo’s triumph inspired generations of Minamoto family samurai to pay their respects at the shrine that had sheltered their lord, and gave the Yusakamichi its greatest period of prosperity. You can follow in these warriors’ footsteps by walking the 10.4-kilometer length of the trail, which is now maintained as a hiking course.

湯阪路

東海道於江戶時代（1603-1867）以前，是途徑箱根的主要道路。當時的旅行者們為了翻過這片多山地帶，其足跡遍佈歷史悠久的湯阪道。這條道路建成於9世紀，以箱根為起點，蜿蜒穿過箱根中部山峰連綿的險要路段，收束為一段漫長的下坡路，通往蘆之湖和箱根神社。途中會經過精進池，這裡因留存著大量石佛而頗負盛名，這些石佛是古代旅人為了祈求旅途安全所雕刻。1180年，武將源賴朝（1147-1199）討伐平氏失敗，撤至箱根神社時，曾取道湯阪道。不久，賴朝重振旗鼓，擊敗平氏，於1185年建立了實質上統治日本約150年的鐮倉幕府。其勝利影響了源氏的歷代武士們，他們對曾庇護過將軍的神社滿懷崇敬。湯阪道也因此迎來了最為輝煌的時期。直至今日，遊客們仍可以沿著這條全長10.4公里的徒步路線，探訪昔日武士們的足跡。

汤坂路

江户时代（1603-1867）以前，途径箱根的主要道路当数东海道。当时的旅行者们为了翻越这片多山地带，其足迹遍布古老的汤坂道。建成于9世纪的这条道路，以箱根为起点，蜿蜒穿过箱根中部层峦叠嶂的险要路段，收束为一段漫长的下坡路，通往芦之湖和箱根神社。途中会经过精进池，这里因留存着大量石佛而闻名，这些石佛是古代旅人为了祈愿旅途安全所雕刻。1180年，武将源赖朝（1147-1199）讨伐平氏失利，退至箱根神社时，曾取道汤坂道。不久，赖朝东山再起，击败平氏，于1185年建立了从实质上统治日本约150年的镰仓幕府。其胜利影响了源氏的历代武士们，他们对曾庇佑过将军的神社充满敬意。汤坂道也因而迎来了最为繁盛的时期。时至如今，游客们仍可以沿着这条全长10.4公里的徒步路线，寻访昔日武士们的足迹
