Q1. Are there any events or tours for hiking the MCT? How do I hire a guide?
Local governments and associated groups hold lots of MCT events. Take a look at this website for a list of events being held along the MCT.
Events : https://mct-a.org/en/event/
Many tours are also being held for beginner to advanced hikers. Search for “Michinoku Coastal Trail tour” on your favorite search engine and you should get results for multiple tours. For more information about the tours and how to apply, please ask the tour company directly.
If you’re looking for a guide, you can ask the satellite facility (attachment 1) that manages the section you’re interested in for a recommendation.
