Tsuru Alps Hiking Route

The eastern side of Tsuru’s city proper is surrounded by hills and mountains of elevations varying between 500 and 650 meters, and in 2017, a series of clearly marked hiking trails were completed and the route christened the “Tsuru Alps.” Three courses are available, offering enthusiasts choices to fit their schedule and desired hike: the 3-hour Family Course, the 4-hour General Course, and the 5.5-hour all-out Gattsuri Course.
