Mount Nijo

Trail description

Nijozan is a twin-peaked mountain on the border of Nara and Osaka, with Odake at 517 m and Medake at 474 m. This route climbs from the west over Medake to Odake. The mountain was a source of sanukite stone for prehistoric tools, and the paths link with hikes to Chikatsu Asuka and Taimadera. The way between the peaks looks out over Osaka Bay, the Nara basin and the Katsuragi and Kongo range.
