From near the ninth station of Mount Kazashi in Moji, Kitakyushu, this loop climbs to the rock peak Kazagashira above the Kanmon Strait and the 362 m Mount Kazashi, then extends to Mount Yahazu, where Meiji-era battery and barracks ruins of the Shimonoseki Fortress remain. One of the three Kiku mountains in the Kitakyushu Quasi-National Park, the summit overlooks the strait, Moji Port, Shimonoseki across the water, and the Genkai and Suo seas.
