[Yamanashi] The second highest mountain in Japan! The summit of Mt. Kitadake!

We came all the way to Kita-dake, the second highest mountain in Japan. It is about 600m lower than the first highest mountain, Mt. Fuji, but it is still one of the few 3,000m peaks in the country. In terms of difficulty, it is a long and steep climb that is more difficult than climbing Mt. Fuji from the Fujiyoshidaguchi trail, making it a fairly dangerous mountain for first-time climbers. However, it is less dangerous than Okuhotaka, Yari, and Tsurugi, so if you have the physical strength and climbing experience, this is a mountain that we would definitely recommend you try. Unfortunately, we were in the clouds at the top and couldn't enjoy the view, but the sense of accomplishment was incredible. #DomesticTravel #YamanashiPrefecture #YamanashiTourism #Kita-dake #MountainClimbing
