Two Thousand Steps

Japan, 2497-1 Shimohino, Fujioka City , Gunma, 375-0046

The Two Thousand Steps in Takayama, Fujioka City, is a hiking trail up Mount Shio, which is 550m above sea level. There are two entrances, one on the Shimohino side and one on the Takayama side, and there are approximately 1,600 steps from Shimohino and 400 steps from Takayama, together known as the Two Thousand Steps. The stairs on the mountain trail are steep in places, but the view from the top is spectacular, offering a panoramic view of the western region of Gunma. Weeping cherry trees have been planted by local residents around the stairs on the Takayama side, so you can enjoy cherry blossom viewing in the spring. The best time to see them is from early to mid-April.
