One of the most beautiful hiking locations with small temples and shrines.

​

You can try their signature 金ゴマ団子（きんごまだんご）or 黒ゴマ団子

（くろごまだんご）when you reach the top. One's made with golden sesame and mochi and the other's made with black sesame and mochi. 

​

金 =Gold

黒 =Black

​

If you're really hungry, there's an all-you-can-eat buffet call Beer Mount. The ticket price is about ¥4,000 (~$40). The food is nothing special but you can get a really good view as you eat.

To get to the top of Takao-san and get back, you can hike, take the cable car, or take the chair lift. 

​

If you take the chair lift down, there's a person who takes a photo and you can purchase it for ¥1,000 (~$10) when you get to the bottom. The view is also beautiful.
