Kushigata-yama is not a super famous mountain, which means no huge crowds, but it does have some spectacular scenery. It is situated right on the edge of the Southern Alps topping over 2,000 meters in height.
We are timing this trip to catch the tail end of the fall colors and the changing of the local deciduous pine trees that turn a bright yellow in fall.
Our hike will start and end at the Ike-no-Chaya Trailhead (池の茶屋登山口) and walk North a bit below the main ridge which is where there should be a lot of wild flowers. Then we will loop back around along the main ridge crossing over 3 peaks along the way to the main peak of Kushigata-yama at 2,052M. Generally this hike has some ups and downs but stays at a high elevation the whole time.
After the hike, we'll head to a local hot spring to get cleaned up and have some ice cream before heading back to Tokyo.
