A Gentle Zenkon-Yado That Softly Supports Pilgrims on Their Journey
Located in Tano, Tokushima Prefecture, Totoro-tto sits at an ideal midpoint along the Shikoku Pilgrimage—about 18 km from Temple 26, Kongōchōji, and just before the climb to Temple 27, Kōnomineji. The inn operates on a uniquely transparent policy, asking only a ¥1,000 contribution to cover utilities. Despite its simplicity, the facilities are complete: a bath, washing machine, microwave, kettle, and soft futons offer everything a tired pilgrim needs to relax. Managed by an experienced pilgrim, the inn provides not only a warm welcome but also valuable tips and information for the road ahead. Flexible services, like offering pick-up from the nearby roadside station, add to its charm. It’s a place where weary walkers can regain their strength, reconnect with their purpose, and gently find the will to “keep walking.”
