The Clifftop Yamabushi can only be reached by completing the Path of the Chosen Hidden Trail, on the east coast of Kii. There is no other way to reach him, trying to scale the mountain from the sides is futile as you will only slide off the mountain slopes.
Note: You can only complete the Hidden Trail as Naoe.
All Hidden Trail Locations and Rewards
Defeat the Clifftop Yamabushi at the Trail's End
At the end of the Hidden Trail, past a corpse, is the Clifftop Yamabushi sitting in his camp. He is easy to sneak up on to get an assassinate attack off, although he has a massive health pool.
If you have Guaranteed Assassinations disabled, still sneak behind him and land an assassination attack, especially if you have points in the Assassination Mastery Tree, to reduce his health significantly before the mini-boss fight begins.
