Mount Mitake, Sacred mountain in Ome, Japan.
Mount Mitake rises 929 meters above sea level within Chichibu-Tama-Kai National Park, featuring dense forests and stone pathways leading to its peak.
The mountain gained recognition in 736 when the Musashi Mitake Shrine was established, marking the beginning of organized religious activities in the area.
The mountain village near the summit contains traditional Japanese inns that have provided lodging and meals to religious pilgrims through many generations.
Visitors reach Mount Mitake by taking the JR Chuo Line from Tokyo to Ome Station, followed by a bus ride to the cable car station.
The Rock Garden trail winds through a narrow valley with moss-covered stones and leads to Ayahiro Falls, connecting to neighboring Mount Otake.
