CNN featured Mt. Hiuchi, Takaya Pond, and Tengu Garden, which were selected as one of Japan's 31 most beautiful places.

Mount Hiuchi, the highest peak of the Kubiki Sanzan mountain range, is located within Myoko-Togakushi Renzan National Park and is home to several marshes. The marshes create a unique landscape, making for a truly unique hiking experience. The three main attractions on Mount Hiuchi are Takaya Pond, Tengu Garden, and the summit. Each is equally beautiful and difficult to choose. While the climb is challenging, the scenery is well worth it. August...

This time, I went to Mt. Hiuchi in Myoko Kogen. In addition to the marshes such as Imori Pond and Numanohara Marsh, Myoko Kogen is also rich in mountains such as Mt. Myoko and Mt. Kurohime. When I climbed Mt. Myoko before, I could see Tengu's Garden from the top, and I wanted to go there someday. It seems to be famous for its autumn leaves, but I decided to climb it because I thought the lush marshland in summer would be nice too...

When I opened the pamphlet, it seemed to be an active volcano that erupted 6,000 years ago. It is mainly composed of andesite and basalt immersed rocks...

Genya, who posted an article about visiting the marshes of Hokkaido, wrote a climbing report of Mt. Asahidake! Now, please enjoy Genya's article!
