Climbing from Haraikawa in Mt. Chokai
Climbing from Haraikawa in Mt. Chokai
Summer. At normal speed, it takes about 4 hours to get to the summit. Depending on the year and season, there are usually good water sources for the first 2 or 3 hours, but close to the top it is dry. The first autumn snow is usually in October, and it doesn't fully melt until August. But there's no problem hiking with a little snow -- consider wearing hiking boots to help kick footholds in the snow. The summit is 4.4km from the warming hut at Haraikawa.
Winter. In the winter, it still takes 4 hours to get to the summit -- just follow the flags up the snow. Going down is fast, since you probably will bring skis, a snowboard, or a sled.
