Komuroyama Hike
Komurayama Park features 321 meter high Mt. Komuro. From the wood deck at the top there is a 360 degree view of the area, including Mt. Fuji, Sagami Bay, the Boso Peninsula, and the islands of Izu. From late April to early May, a hundred thousand azaleas create a carpet of red. I'll have to go back for that!
English information is available in the parking area at the bottom.
Wild boars are a dangerous problem here. You can see areas where they have dug up the ground.
Cage traps are set up to catch them. I don't know what happens to them after that. Fortunately, I did see any boars on this hike.
Near the top is a little shrine.
At the very top is a wood walkway, which was closed when I was there. Maybe it was too early in the day?
The views from the top are breath taking.
If you don't want to hike to the top, there is a chair lift.
There is a small memorial near the parking area at the bottom.
It was a gorgeous day for a hike!

Pamela: Another very amazing place you have shared with us, I hope if you go back when the flowers are blooming you share the photos with us, I find the very last photo very interesting, I love seeing unusual buildings, this one is very different.

What a view! This is really a remarkable place. I'd love to see that azalea carpet, too.
What a beautiful day for an outing to this park with its stunning views.
Dish #1 is where the wild boar goes!

321 metres doesn't sound like much of a mountain, but the view is stunning none the less! How beautiful it must be when everything is covered in red flowers too.
There is a very pleasant scenery. Boars are very ferocious. I think the captured wild boar will be released deep into the mountains or used as a game dish.
