This traverse climbs Mount Yake’s North Peak from the Shin-Nakanoyu trailhead, then descends through Nakao Pass and Yakedake Hut to Kappa Bridge in Kamikōchi. Mount Yake, one of Japan’s 100 Famous Mountains, is an active volcano; its North Peak overlooks the Hotaka Range and Kamikōchi. The descent reaches the Azusa River, and Kappa Bridge offers views of the Hotaka Peaks, Dakesawa, and Mount Yake behind you.
