Get ready for an unforgettable adventure at Mount Nokogiri, our beloved "Sawtooth Mountain." Whether you choose to conquer the historic stone trails on foot or take a scenic ride up the ropeway, you'll be rewarded with incredible sights. The mountain is home to the Nihon-ji Temple grounds, where you can discover ancient stone carvings and Japan's largest pre-modern stone Buddha. Be prepared for a lot of stairs, but the panoramic views of Tokyo Bay and, on a clear day, even Mount Fuji from the thrilling "Hell's Peak" viewpoint are absolutely worth the effort. It takes about 2-3 hours to explore the main sights once you're on the upper mountain.
