In all, there were 69 areas to stay on the road from Edo to Kyoto. It was about 300 kilometers (185 miles) to Magome, the 42nd stop. In those days, it took about a day to walk the 8-10 kilometers (5-7 miles) between the stations on the road. The group of inns in the Kiso Valley has been preserved to this day, and some of them are still in operation! If you travel to Magome, you can also travel 200 years into the past by staying at one of these inns.
