Dewa Sanzen Shrines & Buses

Hi All,

At present, I'm planning on visiting Dewa Sanzan on the 20th and 21st of June.

I've just got some general questions that people who have been there before might be able to answer.

I'm currently staying at Tsuruoka so getting to buses is not a problem. Please tell me if you think the following is easily achievable (or not achievable at all)

Day 1: Catch first bus to Haguro-san. Visit the shrine. Then, catch bus to Gas-san 8th Station and walk to Gas-san. Due to a difficult walk - I'm going to walk back to Gas-san 8th Station to catch the bus back to Tsuruoka. Does this sound possible in one day if you have reasonable fitness (nothing spectacular).

Day 2: Visit Yudono-san.

As mentioned - if you know anything about bus times and when Gas-san is open this year - I'd be happy to hear....

Late June is already rainy season started usual.
Not recommend.

However - Dewa Sansan is only open from July-September and the wet season does not really affect Tohoku as much as down south......
