Hiking time is an estimate for an average hiker, without breaks.

From the Senomoto trailhead at the southwestern edge of the Kuju range, easy forest gives way to grassland and the wide-open 1,577 m top of Iwaigodake, then a bamboo-grass path leads on to 1,698 m Ogigahana and back. Miyama-kirishima azaleas bloom between the two peaks from late May to early June, and Ogigahana's summit looks north to the Handa Highlands and south to the Kuju Highlands, with Aso and Mount Sobo beyond.
