From Minotoguchi, this southern Yatsugatake circuit follows Minamisawa and Gyoja Hut to Mount Akadake, traverses north over Mount Yokodake to Mount Iodake, then returns by Akadake Kosen and Kitasawa. The ridge links 2,899-metre Akadake, the range's highest summit, with volcanic rock peaks, Iodake's great crater wall, and views toward Mount Fuji and the Japanese Alps. This long alpine route has chains, ladders, steep rock, and exposed drops around Yokodake, requiring strong fitness and confident rock skills even in settled, snow-free weather.
