2 days, 1 nights ・ ≈355 km ・ 6h 45m driving (estimated)
Imabari-dō / Saijō-dō (77 km): 2 days on foot in the Edo period, 2 by express horse — 2 days by campervan, passing all 6 post towns. Overnight stops are only michi-no-eki and RV parks we checked for 24-hour toilets and no "no overnight parking" signs. One-way trip: confirm drop-off at another branch with the rental company first.
