Mount Hino

Mount Hino rises to an elevation of 794.5 meters, featuring both an established and a new trail system through dense forest terrain.

The mountain serves as a geographical landmark that guided maritime trade vessels during the Edo Period along the northern sea routes.

Local residents maintain traditional practices at the mountain's Hino Shrine, which marks the beginning point of the hiking trails.

Hikers can access the mountain from Oshio Station on the JR Hokuriku Main Line, with a 2.2-kilometer walk to the trailhead.

The summit contains two separate markers, including a newly constructed shelter and a dedicated path leading to an altitude indication point.
