Myōjin-dake Jabumi

【Roar of the Dragon God, Summit of Prayer】 The ancient heartbeat carved into 'Myōjin-dake and Jabami'

Myōjin-dake, at an elevation of 1,074 meters, separates Ten'ei Village and Aizuwakamatsu City. Revered as a sacred peak dedicated to the rain god since ancient times, it embraces the mysterious 'Jabami' abyss, where legends of a giant serpent remain. While its appearance may seem steep, it is also cherished as a 'mountain of the heart' where even beginners and families can aim for the summit while feeling the breath of nature.

■ Beginner-friendly 'Green Corridor'

Myōjin-dake features well-maintained hiking trails, allowing you to fully enjoy the charm of mountain walking without the need for serious equipment.

• Promenade of Sunlight: The route through the beech primeval forest has a gentle slope, and the alpine flowers blooming at your feet and the chirping of wild birds pleasantly soothe the fatigue of the climb.
• 360-degree Panorama: Standing at the summit, you can see the golden Aizu Basin below, and in the distance, the majestic figures of Mount Bandai and the Iide Mountain Range. The view from this unobstructed sky seat is the ultimate feast that only those who have reached the top can enjoy.

■ The Blue Abyss 'Jabami' that Swallows Legends

After your hike, head to the scenic spot 'Jabami' along the Agagawa (Ougawa) river at the foot of the mountain.

• Earth's Sculpture and Dragon God Legend: The beauty of the white strange rocks and the deep emerald green abyss is filled with unfathomable power, supporting the legend that a giant serpent once lived here.

The tranquility of the summit marking the passage of time and the deep abyss where legends breathe. For beginners, why not take the first step into the sacred area of Ten'ei? A refreshing holiday that connects you with the breath of the earth awaits you.
