From lake Ashi back to Hakone Yumoto where I had my accommodation it was possible to follow a partially reserved hiking path from the Edo period. With its copper stones and crisscrossing over small rivers and through bamboo forests it had its very own charm and was certainly the better option than taking the bus.
I did, however, have some issues with the marking of the walking path as I was either missing directions or they were inconsistently placed which resulted in me following the street at some parts which was not ideal.
