Mt.Misen Summit
Cautions
- Be sure to carry plenty of drinking water (especially in the summer).
- Wear appropriate footwear (at least sneakers).
- Take a cane for climbing safety (and to keep away the vipers).
- Avoid hiking after 3 p.m. Sundown is early and trails are too dark to see.
- Check the ropeway schedule. It's a 30 min. hike between Shishiiwa Station and the summit. Be sure to check for cancellations due to weather conditions.
- Beware of mamushi (vipers) and hornets. Call 119 if you are bitten or stung.
- Trails are very slippery after the rain. Avoid falling. (If you do fall, be sure to land on your bottom, not on your hands.)
