This circuit climbs from Akagawa Trailhead to Mount Kuju, passes Kuju Refuge Hut, and returns via Mount Ogigahana. The Akagawa Trail to 1,786.5 m Mount Kuju passes mizunara oak forest to the sixth station and becomes rocky above the ninth station. At 1,698 m, Mount Ogigahana is one of the Kuju range's foremost Miyama-kirishima azalea locations; in June, flowers cover the plateau east of the summit, which looks towards Mount Kuju and Mount Aso.
