General Information & Summary:

Mt. Karakuni, standing at 1,700 meters, is the highest peak in the Kirishima mountain range and offers stunning panoramic views of the surrounding volcanic terrain. The trail starts from the Ebino Kogen Visitor Center and leads hikers through lush greenery up to the summit.

You’ll also have the chance to get a glimpse of Onamiike Crater Lake, Japan’s highest altitude crater lake. The lake’s turquoise waters, set against the rugged volcanic landscape, create a breathtaking contrast that makes this hike even more rewarding.

This trail is part of Kirishima-Yaku National Park, known for its volcanic activity, hot springs, and scenic beauty. It’s a great option for beginner hikers seeking adventure in southern Japan’s volcanic landscapes.
