A mountain path in Yumoto

This is a mountain road near Yumoto. However, it is not clear if it is the old Tokaido Highway around Hakone Hachiri or Yusaka Road of Kamakura Period, or other mountain road. If it were the old Tokaido Highway, it should be stone paved, but that is also not clearly evident. It is possible the stone pavement had been buried through the course of time.==Date:unknown, Place:Hakone, Photo:R.
