This loop climbs from Sugadaira Ranch via Ko-azumaya and Naka-azumaya to 2,354 m Mount Azumaya, then returns via Mount Nekodake. Mount Azumaya is one of Japan’s 100 Famous Mountains and Mount Nekodake one of its 100 Famous Flower Mountains; the route links pasture, bamboo grass, conifer forest, and rocky ground. The ridge has steep climbs, descents, and rocky sections, and the Daimyōjin-zawa bridge is damaged, requiring particular care during high water.
