Om

Hurtige fakta: Bjerget rejser sig 329 meter op og tilbyder en 360-graders panoramaudsigt over byen og Nagara-floden. På toppen ligger et slot, der tidligere kontrollerede regionen og nu huser et museum med historiske artefakter.

Højdepunkter: En hemmelig sti fører til skjulte udsigtspunkter, hvorfra man ved klart vejr kan se de snedækkede tinder af de japanske alper. Hvert efterår afholdes en traditionel lanternfestival, hvor hundreder af lanterner bader bjerget i varmt lys.

Insidertips

Comfortable hiking shoes are a must, the trails can be steep and slippery.
Early morning or late afternoon are the best times for quiet photos without many people.
The path to the castle is short but steep: those afraid of heights should use the cable car.
In autumn, the viewpoints are especially magically lit during the lantern festival.
