[Fukui, Onigatake ⛰] A panoramic view of Echizen! Climbing a power spot

Located in Echizen City, Fukui Prefecture, Onigatake is a popular spot where you can enjoy both hiking and the scenery, rising approximately 800 meters above sea level. From the summit, you'll enjoy spectacular views of Echizen City and Wakasa Bay, and on clear days, you can even see the Sea of ​​Japan. The hiking trail is relatively well-maintained, making it suitable for beginners. The beech forests and unusually shaped rock formations along the way are a highlight, allowing you to feel the power of nature as you climb. At the summit, there's a huge rock associated with the legend of an ogre, creating a mystical atmosphere. It's also well-known as a power spot among locals, and many people climb the mountain to pray. After the climb, we recommend taking a break at a nearby campground or observation deck and enjoying the magnificent views. This mountain changes its appearance with the seasons, and the autumn foliage is particularly spectacular. 📌 Useful Information Address: Uryu-cho, Echizen City, Fukui Prefecture, 915-0801 Access: Approximately 20 minutes by car from Takefu IC on the Hokuriku Expressway Climbing Time: Approximately 3 hours round trip Difficulty Level: Beginner to Intermediate Parking: Free near the trailhead Recommended Season: Spring to Autumn (especially beautiful autumn foliage) Enjoy a hike that captures the nature and legends of Echizen, aiming for the breathtaking views that unfold from the summit of Onigatake. #Onigatake #EchizenCity #FukuiHiking #StunningPanoramicView #PowerSpot #BeechForest #StrangeRocks #AutumnFoliageHiking #FukuiTrip #NatureWalk #0YenTrip2025Autumn
