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

From the Arafune Fudo side in Saku, this return climbs to Hoshio Pass, crosses the high point Kyozukayama (1,423 m) and the lava plateau some 400 m wide and 2 km long, and reaches the Tomoiwa lookout atop a cliff about 200 m high. Named for its likeness to a ship in rough seas, the table mountain has colonies of Japanese primroses on its plateau, and Tomoiwa looks out to Mount Asama, Myogi and the Northern Alps.
