Short sighted and long sighted. When making reservation, you have to anticipate the following two night’s reservations. Make sure the distance between accommodations and the difficulty of the route are manageable. After all, you don’t want to arrive at your distance without a futon.

A staff member from Cyclo no le spent hours working with me counting kilometers, reviewing elevation plans, pinpointing accommodations, locating train stations, and making reservations through Temple #88. Having done this, his comment was, “I feel as though I actually walked 88 Temples.” What a generous and deeply appreciated act of kindness.
