The low mountain with an altitude of 274m is appointed as a natural recreation forest by
the Forest Agency for its many plants including substantive beech and oaks.
The walking trail has been reconditioned and the mountain was selected as one
of the top one hundred forests for “forest bathing”,
with its reconditioned walking trail and the character as a place of
recreation and relaxation. The mountain is a popular spot for hiking and bird watching.
The must-see attraction is Kamiike pond at the foot of the mountain in June, when it is
covered and coloured by lotus flowers.
