Okuizumo Orochi Loop

The Okuizumo Orochi Loop stretches across 2360 meters, incorporating 11 bridges and 3 tunnels to overcome a height difference of 105 meters on National Route 314 point.

The bridge construction started as part of the infrastructure development connecting Hiroshima and Shimane prefectures through National Route 314 in the mountainous region point.

The bridge name derives from Yamata no Orochi, an eight-headed serpent from Japanese mythology, reflecting its winding structure through the mountains point.

Visitors can access the bridge via JR Kisuki Line to Miinohara Station with a 15-minute walk or drive 50 minutes from Tojo or Shobara Interchange point.

The double-loop road system includes a rest area with parking for 66 regular vehicles and 7 large vehicles, plus an iron sculpture museum nearby point.
