From the Shibasawa gate in Toyamago, Iida, this long return walks the forest road past Irodo to Bengashima with its Seiko hut, then climbs via Nishizawado, Kokedaira and the Hijiridaira hut to Kohijiri and on to the 3,013 m Mount Hijiri, Japan's southernmost 3,000 m peak. Above the treeline at Kohijiri a steep ridge leads on, and the summit gives a full circle of views over the southern Southern Alps, with alpine flowers along the way.
