This loop climbs from Kurumazaka Pass by the Omote Course to Yarigasaya and Tomi-no-Kashira, then traverses Mount Kurofu, Jakotsudake, Sennindake, and Nokogiridake along Mount Asama's outer rim. It descends the J-Band into Yunotaira, makes an out-and-back ascent of Mount Maekake, and returns via Kusasuberi and Tomi-no-Kashira, linking the volcanic basin with the full rim skyline.
