Product Info

The content of this product is provided by machine translation and may not reflect the actual information, please take this into consideration before booking.

Nokogiriyama is known as a lesser known mountain on the Boso Peninsula. Its jagged ridgeline resembles the teeth of a saw, and the remains of a quarry where Boso stone was cut by the stone-cutting industry until the Showa era look like the ruins of a building, making this otherworldly space that appears in the middle of nature popular.
On this tour, you will pass through the streets of Kanaya, which once flourished as a stone-cutting industry, and climb with a guide along the "Sharikko Road," a road along which quarried stone was once transported. While enjoying the climb, which is low above sea level but has many ups and downs, you will feel the breath of the craftsmen of the time and trace the history of how Boshu stone supported the modernization of Japan and then declined over time.

The observation deck offers a spectacular view of Mt. Fuji and Tokyo Bay!
From the observation deck you can get a panoramic view of Tokyo Bay, and if the weather is good you can see the Miura Peninsula and Mt. Fuji on the opposite shore.

The guide's explanations will help you understand the historical background!
Along the way, you may come across piles of rocks, rusted old machinery, or letters carved into the rock face, but what on earth are they? With a guide, you can ask all sorts of questions that you wouldn't find out if you just passed by!

There are plenty of photo spots!
