History of Mukashi-Michi Okutama Mukashi-Michi is the historical

hiking trail connecting the old Ome-

Kaido(Ome Highway)from Hikawa area to

Ogouchi area of Okutama Town.

★Later, the route was extended to the west along the Tama

River. Because the route led to Kofu over Daibosatsu Pass via

Ogouchi area, it was also called Koshu-Ura-Kaido(Koshu Back

Road) in the Edo period. Many people used Koshu-Ura-Kaido,

because it was about 8km shorter than Koshu-Kaido(Koshu

Highway). The present Ome-Kaido(Ome Highway) which was

opened to traffic in the 11th year of the Meiji era(1878) leads

to Kofu City through Yanagisawa.
