I got lost when going out to hike Mt. Nokogiri. I was walking wrong-way down some road when the employee at the visitor center some 1.5km away comes running after me to inform me that I am going the wrong way. I don't know how he deduced this after I walked out of that center. He escorted me to the correct trailhead which I missed by about 500m. Welcome to Japan.

It's possible they had someone monitoring the paths or someone saw you from higher up. I've hiked Nokogiri before and along some of the sketchier areas, the stairs were literally giving way under my step. It was pure luck that I hadn't fallen to my death multiple times over.
