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.
