Miura Hills

The Miura Hills extend across the Miura Peninsula, forming a natural landscape of green slopes that rise above the surrounding coastal areas.

These hills served as strategic observation points throughout Japanese history, allowing residents to monitor maritime activities in both Tokyo Bay and Sagami Bay.

Local farmers maintain traditional agricultural practices in the hills, growing vegetables and fruits using methods passed down through generations.

Visitors can access the hills through multiple entry points connected to public transportation routes, with hiking trails suitable for different fitness levels.

The hills contain Mount Ogusu, which provides views of Mount Fuji, Tokyo Bay, and Sagami Bay from a single vantage point during clear weather.
