This hike up Mount Ōyama is a popular day trip from Tokyo that combines mountain scenery, cultural sites, and panoramic views. Starting from the Oyama Cable Bus Stop, hikers can either take a cable car or climb through forested paths and stone steps to reach Ōyama Afuri Shrine. From there, the trail continues to the summit, with opportunities to enjoy views of Mount Fuji and the surrounding region. After reaching the peak, hikers can either retrace their steps or descend the opposite side of the mountain toward Hinata, where views of Tokyo accompany much of the descent. Overall, it's a moderately challenging hike that blends nature, history, spectacular viewpoints, and many many steps!

Short walk in Nymph Falls featuring a well-marked trail through a dense Pacific Northwest forest of firs, cedars, and mossy trees. The path leads directly to the Puntledge River, opening onto smooth bedrock shelves where glacial waters cascade over stepped rock ledges.
