Senkoji Park Summit Trail

千光寺公園山頂遊歩道

4.6Est. 90FreeOnomichi, Chugoku
Local Pick

Overview

A winding hilltop trail above Onomichi with panoramic Seto Inland Sea views and a literary path carved with poems.

Beyond the famous temple walk, Senkoji Park's summit trail weaves through granite boulders inscribed with haiku and poetry by authors who loved Onomichi. The trail passes the Bungaku no Komichi (Literature Path) with 25 stone monuments. At sunset, the view across the island-studded Inland Sea is unforgettable.

Local tips

Skip the ropeway up and walk down from the summit instead. The descent through narrow stone alleys is the real magic.
