Kankakei Summit Observation
Located within the Seto Inland Sea National Park, this is one of Japan's three great valleys. The ropeway that connects the summit and base of the mountain is popular as it is the only one in Japan where you can see the sky, sea, and valley all at once. We will take you to the summit of Kankakei by bus, after which you can enjoy sightseeing and lunch on your own. The ropeway is a one-way trip from the summit to the base of the mountain (Kountei Station). (Ropeway passenger fare included) Please return to the bus at Kountei Station. The bus will then travel from the summit to the base of the mountain (Kountei Station) and head to the next tourist spot.
