Mt.Kuromi

A front-row seat to the “Alps on the Ocean.”
Forming part of the Okudake mountains, Mt. Kuromi is famed for offering some of Yakushima’s most breathtaking views.After a steep ascent branching off the main ridgeline, an awe-inspiring panorama unfolds, revealing a sweeping view of the island’s deep interior summits.Wind races along the ridgeline, setting the fields of yakuzasa bamboo grass swaying like waves. The mountain seems to hold, just for itself, a mysterious space where the sky and earth melt into one.Here, far from the presence of people, only the wind, the light, and the land remain—sharing the silence. This is a secluded front-row seat to a heavenly realm.
