Is the Nyoigatake trailhead still open for visitors and hikers?

Yes, the Daimonjiyama/Nyoigatake approach is generally accessible as a public hiking entrance, but conditions can change after heavy rain or storm damage, so check Kyoto City or local trail notices before going.

Can I recreate the anime shot without entering private property?

Yes. The matching viewpoint is along the public street near the trailhead, and you should stay on the roadside and avoid photographing toward homes too closely.

Are there facilities like toilets or shops right at this anime location?

Facilities at the trailhead itself are limited, so it is best to use restrooms and buy drinks near Keage or along the approach before walking up to the spot.

Yasaburō stands near the Nyoigatake trailhead in a quiet Kyoto street scene at the opening of The Eccentric Family 2.
This moment appears as the story settles back into its familiar mix of calm daily life and Kyoto’s subtle strangeness. Yasaburō Shimogamo is shown around the Nyoigatake trailhead area, and the frame carries a quiet, observant mood that reflects how The Eccentric Family wraps family emotion and shifting fate inside ordinary city scenery. At this point, the feeling is not explosive but suspended between ease, contemplation, and a faint unease, as if new trouble is about to emerge from a familiar Kyoto streetscape. In real life, the Nyoigatake (Daimonjiyama) trailhead matches the anime quite well, especially in the direction of the road, the slope of the street, and the way the residential area meets the foot of the mountain. The anime simplifies some background elements, so signs, roadside fixtures, and overhead wires look cleaner on screen, while the actual trailhead has more lived-in details and some updates depending on the year. Overall, this is a highly recognizable location, and a Google Street View comparison makes it even easier to see how faithfully the anime preserves the terrain and street composition.
