八甲田山 山々は古代の噴火活動から形づくられており、また現在も火山活動は続いています。最高峰の大岳の山頂は360度の眺望が開け東北の山々から北海道まで、北の大地の壮大な眺望を望めます。また周辺には美しい高層湿原もあるので、是非時間をとって散策してみてください。
October 17, 2020The view from the trail was amazing. The colourful trees in mid of October took my breath away. The trail is not just “walking under trees”. If you are the person who prefers various types of terrain, then this trail is for you. It won’t betray your expectations.
October 17, 2020This hike was beautiful! Fall is definitely the time to do it. The last half mile to the top is fairly straight up.
November 3, 2019This trail is tough. We hiked in early November while it was cold, muddy, rocky, and cloudy. Truly a majestic hike however. About 3km in we were above the clouds and stayed in them even upon reaching the summit. Boots and cold weather gear are a must as the temperature can drop 20-30° F during the ascent.
November 1, 2019I have completed this hike 4 or 5 times. It is an amazing hike. Remember it is a mountain hike and you must be prepared for a hike and not a light stroll. You will likely encounter some muddy spots, loose rocks, thick clouds and high winds however it is an amazing hike that you not regret. Dress appropriately, wear hiking boots and enjoy. Beautiful views and since it is a loop, you will never see the same sights twice.
October 7, 2019lower part of loop below mountains was miles of bog (October). During leaf change there are some great views: but its so damn muddy!

First to ReviewI love this hike! Nothing like walking on the rim of a volcanic crater. Takes between 5.5 & 6.5 hours.
