Dragon peaks Hiking

Let’s celebrate dragon year and climb male and female dragon peaks with us. First, we will climb 5 minutes to the peak of female dragon. Then we will walk on 15 minutes to the dam on Lake Shiroyama. Gaze the water surface shining with spring sunlight, then we will walk into woods area. Keep going up for 70 minutes, we will get to the junction for Mt. Engubo. From the junction to the male dragon peak will be a 30-minute descent. From the observatory point on the peak, you will be able to see a remarkable view of the Western Kanto Plain region to include Miura Bay, Tokyo Sky Tree, and Mt. Tsukuba (if clear weather permits). Walk on a paved road for 35 minutes until reaching “Katakuri-no-sato” (cluster of dogtooth violet), which is the end of this hiking course. The private property is only open to the public this time of year. Here you will be able to see 300,000 dogtooth violets, 100 kinds of trees (such as peach and cherry blossom trees), azaleas, and other beautiful plants.
