Regarding the status of the hiking trails on Sentsuzan
- The current flowering status of the dogtooth violets on Sentsuzan(As of April 30)The snow has melted on all course, but there are still some areas where the footing is still poor.
Dogtooth violets often bloom just before the summit, just beyond the junction with the hiking trail.
The flowers at the top are almost in full bloom.
This year, the flowers are blooming about a week later than last year.(Last year, it bloomed around April 14th.)

Parking space is limited so we ask that you carpool whenever possible.
The parking lot at Hinokamiso is exclusively for facility users.
