We had a one day trek to Mt. Myoko, 2,454 m high.
Mt. Myoko is also known as Echigo-Fuji, that means analogical formative to Mt. Fuji. Sadly, we could not see the whole picture of the mountain throughout the trekking yesterday.
We departed ropeway base station, "Myoko Sky Cable", at 8:00 am on Saturday 5th September, and arrived at trail entrance after 10 min riding to the top of the ropeway.

It was a relaxed
trail the whole way to the top, initially through fagaceae wooded areas and then rocky area onto
open mountain. It took us three and half hours to get to the top of the Mt. Myoko, where we could take a lunch, after climbing up about 1,200m a distance of about 4km.

The route to the top
was well maintenance with iron chains & lopes particularly in the more exposed
areas along the ledge.
We arrived at the top 2454m, at about 11:40am.
