Start with a loop around Kasori Shell Midden, the largest shellmound in the world. There’s an open air archaeological park and indoor museum. A loop of the main paths is ~1 km. Then, take the small path next to the former ÅŒsuga Family House to connect to the path along the narrow river. Head north for 0.8 km to the end Arch Hill Tennis Club, turning around to take path for 2.4 km to the southern end. There are paths on either side of the river — mainly gravel with a couple of paved sections.
