Abundant in oddly shaped rocks and huge boulders in Tamano, Okayama, Mt. Ojigatake is a great spot offering a magnificent view of the calm Seto Inland Sea, beautiful islands, including the Seto Ohashi Bridge. On a clear day, you can even see as far as the Shikoku^*1 mountain range.

You can take a walk along its hiking trail to bask in the beautiful views and trying to find its many oddly shaped rocks like ‘Nikoniko Iwa’ (Smiley Rock), Heart Iwa (heart-shaped rock) and ‘Oji-san Iwa’ (rock with a face like a middle-aged man). The hiking trail is also well-known for cherry blossoms and azaleas in spring.
Plus, Mt. Ojigatake is one of the best spots in Japan for paragliding and bouldering!
