🏔️ Mt. Kumotori Day Hike – Tokyo’s Highest Peak

Note 1: Due to non-availability of accommodation at Kumotori Sanso on April 25, this plan has been changed to a day hike.

Note 2: Depending on your hiking speed, we may descend even after sunset - carrying headlamp is must!

Join me for a challenging day hike to Mt. Kumotori (雲取山), the highest mountain in Tokyo! Expect a long but rewarding hike with great views and a solid endurance day.
