    Saitama Chichibu-gun Yokozemachi Ashigakubo

    頂上の丸山展望台からはほぼ360°のパノラマが広がっていて、武甲山はもちろん奥秩父やアルプス、北関東に目を向けると、赤城や上越国境の山脈が見えます。 冬季は林道も積雪しますが、頂上まで車で入りやすいので良いドライブスポットです。 頂上の展望台にはベンチもいくつかあります。ハイカーの方はここから正丸尾根へ縦走します。

Eclipsed by neighboring Tokyo, Saitama is often branded as the sleepy suburbs. However, look a little deeper and you’ll uncover quaint towns bursting with history and crafts from the kurazukuri Edo-period clay houses of Kawagoe to the ancient tree-enveloped temples of Chichibu.
