This out-and-back follows the route commonly known as the Prince Route from Nakanomata Trailhead, visiting Mount Hiragatake and Ikenodake. Above the steep forested climb, a broad high-elevation wetland spreads across the gentle summit plateau, including the characteristic Hime-no-ike pond and Tamago-ishi rock.
