Mount Jii

Mount Jii rises 2,825 meters above sea level within the Ushirotateyama Mountain Range, featuring steep cliffs and rocky outcrops across its terrain.

The mountain paths of Mount Jii have connected communities between Toyama and Nagano Prefectures for centuries, serving as traditional trading routes.

Mount Jii maintains deep connections to Japanese mountain worship traditions, with local communities performing seasonal ceremonies at specific locations on its slopes.

Hikers can access Mount Jii through multiple marked trails from Toyama City, with the Taneike Sanso mountain hut providing necessary supplies and shelter.
