Mt.Koma Private Trail Running Tour in Ōiso

At Mt.Koma of Ōiso arriving at Tokyo Station from less than an hour by train, you can enjoy 360 ° panorama overlooking Mt.Fuji and you can play at the beautiful beach at the end of the trail.

Hike to Mt.Koma

The 360-degree view from “Shounandai” is really wonderful overlooking Mt. Fuji, the Boso Peninsula and the mountains of Tanzawa.

When you head towards Shonan from Tokyo direction, it is a mountain 165 meters above sea level, located on the east side of Shonandaira which is the green field of Oiso that you can see from the train first.
That is Mt.Koma.
Until the end of the Edo period, this mountain was protected as a spiritual area of the Koma Temple and logging of trees was forbidden, so the rich forest is still protected today.

There is a quiet and peaceful trail surrounded by woods, resting places are dotted in some places.

The Koma Mountain park nature trail has been selected as “Japan’s Forest 100” selected by the Japan Forest Instructor Association, you can observe the original nature of nature.
This trail is a forested area formed by various trees, and you can also see rare fields, wild birds and butterflies in the Mt.Asama area (north of the route along the ridge).

Ōiso Beach was the first Japanese beach in Japan that was established in 18th Meiji era. It is a popular spot for families and couples. Moreover, it is around 10 minutes even if you walk from JR Oiso station. Shower is also installed, so let’s bring swimsuit and enjoy the swimming!
