From the old pilgrim path entrance in Daigo, Ibaraki, this loop follows springs such as Kinshosui, part of the Yamizo River spring group listed among Japan's 100 finest waters, up to 1,022 m Mount Yamizo, the prefecture's highest point. The summit holds Yamizomine Shrine and a 16.5 m castle-shaped lookout facing Nasu, the Nikko peaks and the Abukuma range. The return visits Nichirinji, the 21st temple of the Bando 33 Kannon pilgrimage, said to have been founded by En no Gyoja.
