The main street/shopping arcade gets steeper and steeper until it eventually turns into stairs--this is the beginning of the main shrine area...pic.twitter.com/o3IbO0JqYR
You end up VERY high up on the hill--there are covered escalators available (at a small fee) for people who have trouble walking up so many stairs.pic.twitter.com/2lsvDlvpnx
Passing a fountain with a dragon statue, you leave the shrine area behind as you reach a pleasant hillside garden with a view back to the mainland. You can get back down to the village from this area, or you can press on across the island.pic.twitter.com/1bnE1LJf2a
I cannot stress enough how much of a workout this island can be--stairs for days! After passing another shrine and turning a corner, you'll reach the park area and mid-Enoshima.pic.twitter.com/a21bLRU3FI
There is an observation tower here, but I've never been up it--prefer to walk around. You go past some more shops, then come out at a huge gap in the island with a stunning cliff view.pic.twitter.com/jM1EGPwAty
Across the gap, the shops resume, and after walking a bit further you'll get to the secondary shrine area in the back of the island.pic.twitter.com/bdT5RNF3L4
This area has markedly fewer tourists than the main one, probably on account of how much climbing is required to get here. More subdued colors, too--it feels more woodsy. Beyond it, you find more shops and the beginning of a very steep descent back to sea level.pic.twitter.com/ARHsjTudvz
A *very* steep descent, winding back on itself a lot...when you reach the bottom, you're on the wave-beaten rockspic.twitter.com/ABG7frQURx
The path continues along a curving bridge to a cave, which charges admission if you want to check it out--I prefer to relax on the rocks. High above you are the balconies of the restaurants that you passed walking down...pic.twitter.com/q6ajpLPPCe
...and speaking of: they are a wonderful place to rest and recharge when you're ready to head back to the mainland. There is a ferry service available from these rocks back to the mainland, but I never use it.pic.twitter.com/UU1IdElgCy
Try taking one of the other ways back--either through the forest or the village, or both. Enjoy your trip to Enoshima! See if the beach is still partying as you return to the mainland, and uhhhh beware of hawkspic.twitter.com/xXH2hUDAKr
Those トンビ are really something. One stole an inarizushi right from my chopsticks, grr!
