Mt. Sankodai

The name 'Sankodai’ (a view spot of three lakes in Japanese) is derived from the fact that it is possible to look at the three lakes at once including Lake Saiko, Lake ShojiKo and Lake Motosuko. It is located on the way of the “Tokai Nature Trail", a hiking trail following the Mt. Ashiwada from the Mt. Hanekko near Lake Kawaguchiko, and a spacious resting space is provided along with a pleasant view.

Mt.Koyodai is a 15-minute walk, so you can enjoy a short hike within one hour from the parking lot.
