This circuit climbs from Kurumayama-kata to Mount Kuruma, the highest point of Kirigamine, then crosses Kurumayama-nokkoshi to Chochomiyama and returns beside Kurumayama Wetland. Open grassland ridges offer views of Yatsugatake, Mount Fuji and the Japanese Alps, while the protected raised bog adds a contrasting landscape.
