About the Course – Takatori Mountain
Mount Takatori is located in Zushi City in Kanagawa prefecture. It’s a very small rocky mountain, which used to be a quarry. The place is famous for a steep quay and a statue of Buddha carved on a wall. You can see Sagami bay below your eyes from the top of the mountain.
The mountain is only 139 meters high and its course suits for beginners, but there are some bad footing on the trail and a few places easy to get lost. You should be well-prepared.
