Nagao-daira Observatory

The view from Nagao-daira Observatory is beautiful. After visiting Ayahiro Falls, I originally planned to take a loop back, but couldn't find a path other than the one to Ayahiro Falls. Nagao-daira is open and has an emergency helicopter landing pad, which is quite nice. The view from the small observation hut in front is very spectacular. No, it's different from the feeling of being in the mountains. This is a must-visit spot when coming to Mount Mitake. By the way, upon closer inspection, the small path beside Ayahiro Falls seems to lead up a steep slope. Other than the fork in the road, the paths on the mountain are quite straight, which is pretty good.
