Use parking lot only. The website offers a 500 yen discount on parking fees. Pay in advance and drop it in the post yourself. If you submit the designated form when you leave, you will receive a 500 yen refund. However, both times in the past, there was a notice saying ``We are not available,'' so we were unable to use the discount. Used both times on weekdays in early October. A little disappointing.

The road up here is jagged with gravel and slippery slopes, making it very difficult to go. Vehicles with low clearance will be very dangerous. Parking is recommended in the parking lot below. Parking fee is 1000 yen/day. If you arrive early and there is no one to collect it, you will automatically put it in an envelope and put it in the box.Many people come here to climb the mountain, but parking is limited and the road is difficult to navigate. If the road is properly repaired, it will be good

2024/09/Use parking lotThe parking fee was 1000 yen, and I arrived at 5:00 a.m., but since the employee was not there, I wrote the car number and contact information in the envelope provided, put the parking fee in it, and dropped it in the mailbox.Since it was a weekday, more than half of the seats were occupied.It takes about 15 minutes to drive on very bad roads. I was in a 2WD SUV, but I managed to get there. I think it's better than the road to the Sakuradaira parking lot.

Used at the parking lot for Mt. Akadake.It starts at 5am, and the gravel road up to this point is very bumpy, so be careful if you have a low vehicle.I passed a car that gave up and turned back. .The old man in Yamanoko Village was a kind and friendly person.The parking fee was 1000 yen per day.You can use the restroom in the building for 100 yen.I didn't stay there, so I'm just evaluating the overall image.

I only used the parking lot.I went in because it was a weekday.It seems like there are a lot of holidays2000 yen per nightIt's twice as expensive as the parking lot below, but it's worth paying.The road up to this point is dirtThe mountain hut maintains it.You can climb it with a regular car, but it can be slippery on rainy days.People who are inexperienced with driving may be better off not driving.I went with Luke's20240719

The road up to this point is very rough, but it's great to be able to earn an hour's worth of walking.

This is a mountain hut in Yatsugatake Minoto. I use the parking lot when heading to Akadake Minesen and Gyoja Hut. Please reserve a parking lot on Saturdays and Sundays from spring to autumn.
