Kuragari TÅge (æããå³ ), meaning âDark Pass,â is a historic mountain pass in Japan located on the border of Osaka and Nara Prefectures, crossing the Ikoma Mountains.
One of the oldest routes connecting Osaka and Nara, it has been used since ancient times and is known for its steep climbs, narrow paths, and dense forest. The pass earned its name from the dark, eerie atmosphere created by thick trees and frequent fog, and it has long been associated with legends, ghost stories, and local folklore.
This historic trail winds through rustic farmland and quiet stretches of forest and wetland before reaching the summit of Kuragari TÅge, then continues along the slopes of Mount Ikoma.
Along the route, viewing decks offer expansive views of Osaka City, while charming, historic shrines and temples are scattered throughout the landscape.
We will also stop at Lucky Garden Café and Restaurant, where you can enjoy your choice of food and drinks, and spend time feeding and playing with their friendly goats and sheep.
Leave No Trace, Only Footprints!
