　Place your car in the large parking lot of Tsuetsuki Pass and start climbing from the Tsuetsuki Pass Trailhead behind.Walk along the gentle mountain trail along the ridge and sometimes look at the forest road in the lower left.Soon, you will arrive at the trailhead behind the shelter cabin.It seems that I can drive this far.There are many Zazensou around here, but it is out of season now.
　The course is an easy to climb mountain trail in the larch.I arrived at Mt.Moriyayama East peak in an hour.It seems that the view of Mt.Moriyayama West peak　is better, so I pass by Moriya Shrine and go along the ridge road while occasionally watching the azalea.Mt.Moriyayama West peak has been cut off on all sides except Aralia elata.A local person said he was cutting too much.Therefore, the field of view is open 360 degrees.Lake Suwa is below, Mt.Hachibuse, Utsukushigahara Plateau, and the Northern Alps are behind, and when you turn your eyes to the right, you can see Kirigamine Plateau, Yatsugatake, the Southern Alps, and the Central Alps. You can see the main mountains in Japan.
　The mountain road was very easy to walk like the Tsuetsuki Pass course.Cross the eastern peak and proceed to the right at the Tateishi branch.On the way, there was a corner full of rocks. Names such as Asama Waterfall, Onigajou, and Meotoiwa were named on the rocks.Go down to Tateishi Course Trailhead and go up the national highway to the Tsuetsuki Pass parking lot.
