Itinerary description

Do NOT attempt if you have trouble with heights. A good deal of physical strength is necessary for climbing up the section equipped with chains, especially when following the track clockwise.

The return can be done in 3 different ways from the camp ground, either by following route 36 along the road, following the river or doing a portion of the Amatomi trail through the woods back to Togakushi gate.
