Description

Arrive at Daisen-ji Temple and take a moment to appreciate the temple's architecture and serene atmosphere. Look for signposts indicating the start of the Omote-Sando Trail and begin your ascent.

Follow the well-marked trail as it winds through the forest. Continue hiking until you reach the summit of Mount Daisen.

Take your time to explore Daisen-ji Temple at the top, which offers panoramic views of the surrounding area.
Enjoy the peaceful atmosphere and take in the breathtaking scenery before starting your descent.
Descending the Mountain:

Begin your descent from the summit, following the same trail or an alternative descent route if available.
Be cautious while descending, as the terrain may be steep and uneven in some sections.
