Plan this hike

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

From Iwakagami-daira, this circuit ascends the Higashi-Kurikoma Trail beside a mountain stream and over Mount Higashi-Kurikoma to Mount Kurikoma, then returns on the Chuo Trail. Open-ridge views and alpine plants are highlights, while the mountain-wide autumn colours are celebrated as the “Carpet of the Gods.”
