[Izumi Katsuragiyama] ⛰️

🏖️Overview: Mt. Izumi Katsuragi is a mountain⛰️ with an altitude of 858m, located on the border between Osaka and Wakayama prefectures. The beech forest that spreads around the summit is rare for a low mountain, and it is designated as a national natural monument🫢 because it is close to the southernmost limit of Honshu. You can drive to the summit, but there are also several hiking trails, so you can enjoy hiking🥾. 💞Reasons why we recommend it: To climb Mt. Izumi Katsuragi, we parked our car🚙 in the parking lot of Highland Park Konagawa and set off. Since it was at a high altitude, we reached the top in about 40 minutes. The view from the summit is not good, but it is a mountain of faith🙏, so there are two shrines⛩️. On the other hand, there is a Mt. Katsuragi observation deck nearby, and the view from here is outstanding👌. 📍Location: Kirihata, Kinokawa City, Wakayama Prefecture, Toharacho, Kishiwada City, Osaka Prefecture, Sobahara, Kaizuka City 📍Access: ※Drop off along the hiking route Ushiyama bus stop 🚃Kishiwada Station on the Nankai Main Line, get off at Kumeda Station on the JR Hanwa Line 🚌Nankai Bus Kishiwada Station → Kumeda → Ushitakiyama bus stop Tohara bus stop 🚃Kishiwada Station on the Nankai Main Line, get off at Higashi Kishiwada Station on the JR Hanwa Line 🚌Nankai Bus Kishiwada Station → Higashi Kishiwada Station → Tohara bus stop Sobahara bus stop 🚃Mizuma Railway Mizumakannon station 🚌Koma Bus Mizumakannon station → Sobahara bus stop Inunakiyama bus stop 🚃JR Hanwa Line Izumisano station 🚌Nankai Wing Bus Izumisano Station → Inunakiyama bus stop 🚗By car: There is a parking lot at the summit #Izumikatsuragiyama #Domestic travel strategy
