If you're looking for outdoor excitement, we recommend visiting Mt. Hangetsuyama. No walk around the block, this hike is great for some mid-vacation exercise.
Mt. Hangetsuyama is a worthwhile place to begin your day of discovery in Nikko. This steep landmass comes recommended by fellow travelers, but it's not the only spot to see here. Allow time for other sights like Lake Chūzenji, Kegon Falls, and Mount Nantai to really enjoy what the area has to offer.
