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

This volcanic-terrain route returns from Aso Sanjo parking via Mount Minami and Mount Naka to Mount Taka, the 1,592 m high point of the Aso Five Peaks. Mount Naka is an active volcano emitting volcanic gas, and the ridgeline across Mount Taka, Mount Naka, and Mount Minami overlooks the Aso caldera and surrounding crater landscape. Accessible sections change with volcanic activity: Mount Taka and Mount Naka are closed at alert level 3 or higher. Always check the current crater restrictions before departure.
