The typhoons of 2018 wrought havoc on the trail leading to Sawa-yama in the Northwest corner of the city. It’s been fairly well cleared and offers a stark reminder to stay out of the hills when typhoons approach. . . . #hikinginjapan #hikingadventures #hikinginkyoto #trailsofkyoto #typhoon #ハイキング #登山 #京都ハイキング #kyoto #kyotojapan #japan

KYOTO 100 MOUNTAINS: 16/100: MOMO-YAMA 466m The ridge trail from Sawa-yama to Momo-yama offers few views so you need to take what you can get. Here we snag a brief glimpse into the Kita-yama - the expanse of mountainous terrain that sits to the north of the city and contains Kyoto’s highest peaks. . . . #japan #mountains #nipponlovers #japangram #japanesemountain #yamashina #kyotojapan #kyotohike #hikekyoto #kyoto #京都百名山 #京都 #京都ハイキング #ハイキング #登山 #hiking #japantravel #kyototravel #peakbagging #mountainlover #hikingadventures #besthikes #greathikes #hikinginjapan

KYOTO 100 MOUNTAINS: 15/100: SAWA-YAMA 515m Great little climb in the northwestern corner of the city. The trail takes you up through a valley thrashed by the pair of typhoons that hit the city in 2018 to the Kyoto Trail and the pretty Sawa-no-ike Pond. From there a less strenuous clamber ensues over more blowdowns to the wooded summit of Sawa-yama. . . . #japan #mountains #nipponlovers #japangram #japanesemountain #yamap #kyotojapan #kyotohike #hikekyoto #kyoto #京都百名山 #京都 #京都ハイキング #ハイキング #登山 #hiking #japantravel #kyototravel #peakbagging #mountainlover #hikingadventures #besthikes #greathikes #hikinginjapan

Entrance to the mystical Oiwa Shrine.

KYOTO 100 MOUNTAINS: 14/100: USHIO-ZAN 546m The view heading off Ushio-zan in the Eastern reaches of Kyoto City. . . . #japan #mountains #nipponlovers #japangram #japanesemountain #yamashina #kyotojapan #kyotohike #hikekyoto #kyoto #京都百名山 #京都 #京都ハイキング #ハイキング #登山 #hiking #japantravel #kyototravel #peakbagging #mountainlover #hikingadventures #besthikes #greathikes #hikinginjapan

KYOTO 100 MOUNTAINS: 13/100: NISHI 601m & HIGASHI-SENZU-DAKE 600m At last a break in the trees and some mountain views. The Senzus crown the Ushio Mountains in Eastern Kyoto and are in turn crowned with electrical pylons. I wasn’t cursing progress that afternoon though. The cold wind whistling over the mountains that frigid February day had me hankering for the heated comforts of home. But that wasn’t going to get me anywhere, I could sit up there and hanker ‘til the cows came home or push on - hot chicken soup in the gut - for the final peak on my traverse Ushio-zan... . . . #japan #mountains #nipponlovers #japangram #japanesemountain #yamashina #kyotojapan #kyotohike #hikekyoto #kyoto #京都百名山 #京都 #京都ハイキング #ハイキング #登山 #hiking #japantravel #kyototravel

KYOTO 100 MOUNTAINS: 12/100: TAKATSUKA-YAMA 485m A peep through the trees on Takatsuka-yama down into Eastern Kyoto. . . . #japan #mountains #nipponlovers #japangram #japanesemountain #yamashina #kyotojapan #kyotohike #hikekyoto #kyoto #京都百名山 #京都 #京都ハイキング #ハイキング #登山 #hiking #japantravel #kyototravel #peakbagging #mountainlover #hikingadventures

KYOTO 100 MOUNTAINS: 11/100: DAIGO-YAMA 454m A couple of the grand old buildings near the difficult to locate summit of Daigo-yama. . . . #japan #mountains #nipponlovers #japangram #japanesemountain #daigoji #kyotojapan #kyotohike #hikekyoto #kyoto #京都百名山 #京都 #京都ハイキング #ハイキング #登山 #hiking #japantravel #kyototravel #peakbagging #japanesetemple

KYOTO 100 MOUNTAINS: 10/100: ARASHI-YAMA 382m The storm mountain. It snowed on and off all day but it’d be a stretch to call the flurries that swept down off Atago-yama stormlike. The summit was wooded and flat. There’d been a castle up there at some point in time. A break in the heavy weather came and views down across Arashiyama (the locality) opened up. And that was ten. Ten peaks bagged in my Kyoto 100 mountain quest.

KYOTO 100 MOUNTAINS: 9/100: SANJO-GA-MINE 482m Though it is traditionally thought of as the beginning of spring, the period after Setsubun on February 3, always brings colder weather. Snow has been thin on the ground this year so we had to take our chance when it came. . . . #japan #mountains #nipponlovers #japangram #japanesemountain #arashiyama #kyotojapan #kyotohike #hikekyoto #kyoto #京都百名山 #京都 #京都ハイキング #ハイキング #登山 #hiking #japantravel #kyototravel
