[Yamanashi] Kitadake Sanso, located on the peak that connects the second and third highest peaks in Japan

Kitadake, the second highest mountain in Japan, and Ainodake, the third highest mountain in Japan, are actually close to each other and connected by a ridgeline. The ridgeline between them is called the "walkway in the sky" because of its beauty and is very popular. Kitadake Sanso, located at an altitude of 2,900 meters, is located right at the saddle of this popular ridgeline. This mountain lodge was originally the Kitadake hut, which was built to accommodate the increasing number of Kitadake climbers, and it still serves as a base for many climbers. In fact, the exterior design was done by the late Kisho Kurokawa. It is a two-story building and has all the necessary facilities for a mountain hut. I personally recommend this mountain hut because the food is very delicious. It is very difficult to get here, but the sense of accomplishment and beautiful scenery make it worth it. However, it is a mountain with a fairly high level of difficulty, so be sure to prepare in advance and be careful when climbing. #DomesticTravel #MountainClimbing #YamanashiPrefecture #Kitadake #KitadakeSanso
