Overview

Mt. Omuro is more than a viewpoint — it’s a sacred mountain at the heart of Izu. We’ll begin with a chairlift to the top, where a shrine at the crater’s center tells of sibling rivalry in Japan’s oldest myths. Walking the rim, you’ll take in sweeping views of Sagami Bay, Mt. Fuji, and the volcanic landscapes shaped by its ancient eruption.

This tour is about more than scenery — it’s about how myth, geology, and civic spirit have defined the mountain’s place in both Japan’s past and the present life of the Ike community.

If you’d like to go deeper, consider the Full Day Private Tour, where Mt. Omuro can be combined with coastal trails, waterfalls, or village walks for a fuller picture of Izu.
