thanks, the sarcasm distracted me from the value in that post :)
Shikoku 88 is a trip that would take a lot of commitment but definitely sounds interesting
The Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route is 90 kilometres (55 miles), so ideally we'd only want to do one segment - a day trip preferably.

Research is also confusing - apparently you have to register a membership and pay a ticket just to go hiking? and then the English translation says there are vehicles involved - e.g. https://tateyama-kurobe-webservice.jp/AlpenTour/html/VW001W0010.html
