Mt. Gozenyama Hike：御前山ハイキング

Mt. Gozenyama(御前山:1,405m) is located in Tokyo's Okutama Mountains(奥多摩山系) and is very popular with moderate hikers. After hiking, I'd like to go to an onsen* near the trail-end, but it's optional. This hike is for moderate hikers and the pace will be a moderate, average 2.0km/h throughout the course. Please make sure that you participate in this hike at your own risk. In the case of heavy rain or bad conditions, it may be canceled.
