Scary Cable Car Ride up Mt. Nokogiri | Chiba Japan | Goddess Kannon
Hello Everyone this trip was to Mount Nokogiriyama in Futtsu, Chiba Japan. Only a 2hr plane ride from Seoul, Korea so I plan on some more trips lol.
We took the regular subway all along the coast line which was about an 1hr 1/2 ride from Hun-Chiba to Hamakanaya station.
Once you get to the Hamakanaya station just follow the sings for the Cable car entrance which is a short scenic 10min walk.
Cable Car was 950Yen round trip, which is about $9.00
Be prepared for a lot of hiking, stairs and maybe very muddy, uneven ground but if you make it to the very top is definitely worth it (I didn't, just saying based on pictures on the internet lol) Good luck.

HadesOmega Visits Nokogiriyama (Mount Nokogiri)
This is a video I made when I visited Mount Nokogiri on the Chiba side of Tokyo Bay. Nice place to visit and go for a walk. There is a giant Buddha statue and a large Kannon carving. There's other fun things to do like ride a ropeway, sight seeing, play with little nekos, eat ice cream, and more! This was also where they filmed an episode of Top Gear!

Une famille au Japon: one day on Mount Nokogiri
Une excursion d’un jour depuis Tokyo : prendre le ferry en destination d’un village du littoral nippon pour y découvrir les secrets de sa montagne. Monter en téléphérique, admirer les statues du Daibutsu et de la déesse Kannon, méditer au temple et arpenter les carrières de pierres. Redescendre à pied dans la jungle pour sauter dans le ferry et avoir la chance d’y admirer le coucher de soleil sur le Mont Fuji.
東京から日帰りで楽しめるアウトドア。フェリーに乗って対岸の金谷で神秘的な山登り。ロープウェイで山頂に上って、無数の大仏や観音様を見ながら日本寺で瞑想し、石切場を散策。ジャングルの中を歩いて下山し、フェリーに飛び乗ると、そこには幸運なことに夕日に色づいた富士山を見る事ができた。
Here is a nice one day trip from Tokyo : take a ferryboat to a small coastal village and unveil the secrets of its mountain. Then take a cable car up on the mountain and stare at Daibutsus and Kannon statues; have a prayer at the temple and walk through the stone quarry. Go down the mountain on foot through the jungle all the way back to the ferryboat; enjoy the sunset on Fujisan.

Chiba Day Trip (SP16)
We explored the Boso Peninsula in Chiba! We visited the Odayama Park to view beautiful cherry blossom trees and a strawberry farm to enjoy fresh all-you-can-eat strawberries, hiked on the stone-mountain Mt. Nokogiri and took a dip in a hot spring on the way back. The entire Mt.Nokogiri is inside of the Nihonji Temple. There was a wonderful view of Tokyo Bay and Boso Peninsula from the top of the mountain.

Hike Description:
WHERE to start? WHAT to pick as the jumping-off point for this description? HOW to do so with a place showered in such abundance? Perhaps it is best to first discuss the rakan (also known as arhats or enlightened ones), significant not in the total of their number but of their numerous expressions. They are situated in unique poses—some without heads—most unimpressed at the people passing by them everyday. Next, let recognize the imposing daibutsu (big Buddha), measuring at 102 feet tall and is the largest stone-carved Buddha in Japan. While on the topic of stone-carved figures, farther up near the summit is yet another soaring 98-foot relief sculpture, this one of a standing Hyakusyaku Kannon. From there, walk up some steps to look out at the View of Hell—more a view of Tokyo Bay, Mt. Fuji, and the mundane hikers below, than nefarious beings conducting business under the orders of the Dark Prince. Finally, to conclude this first part of the hike description, it is worth mentioning briefly the observatories (with great views), a teahouse (also has a view), pond garden (with a tranquil setting), restaurant, religious objects, worship halls, a sacred tree, and the splendid main temple complex, all of which culminate in a full day of adventures.
Let us get back to the actual hike up Nokogiriyama. There is the option of taking the cable car to the top, but doing so means missing out on sights of magnificent quarry ruins as well as abandoned equipment and encampments along the hiking routes. There are two main trails starting at the trailhead near the Hama-Kanaya Station: both take about the same time and will eventually meet at a short distance before the north entrance, yet each offers unique glimpses into the history of Kanaya, the quarrying town. Seeing the sites, it is not hard to imagine where the Japanese get the inspirations for their anime and video games. The fantastic settings of acclaimed works such as Spirited Away and Shadow of the Colossus could have easily been influenced by the vast atriums, columns, and caves on the slopes of Nokogiriyama. It would be worthwhile to go up one trail, down the other, and then up again to satisfy the thumping curiosity of a seasoned traveler—a wanderer in a new land.
Most travelers will get here from Tokyo, either by train, ferry, or car. The train/ferry will both stop in Futtsu and then it is approximately 10-15 minutes of walking to either the trailhead or the lower ropeway station. Traveling by car allows for more options as there are multiples parking lots/entrances to utilize. It is also possible to do this hike in reverse by getting off at the Hota Station then walking back toward the main temple entrance. Any which way, at least half a day's worth of exploring is warranted; allot more time if the extended goal is to fully explore Chiba's east coast.
Self Commentary:
Great value in knowledge gained versus time spent for this hike. The route I took is not referenced in any guides or on maps; it was to cover as many sites as possible. I skipped the Jusshuichiran Observatory while could not visit the main temple complex because it was under renovation. All the sites along the Shariki-michi Trail were skipped as well, but take either trail heading up the mountain from the trailhead. The maps at the train station and along the trails are very easy to follow. Other things to know: there is an entrance fee to get into the temple, and after the hike expect a 25-minute walk to get to the nearest train station (Hota) on the other side of the mountain.

Nokogiri-yama (鋸山)
Nokogiri-yama, located in Chiba Prefecture, is 330m above sea level and is home to Nihon-ji, Kanto's oldest temple (built in 725), and Nihon-ji Daibutsu, Japan's largest giant Buddha. The hiking trail of Nokogiri-yama is easy and casual and offers visitors splendid Buddhist stone images amidst the many flowers and trees. It is located alongside Tokyo bay, and spots a number of great seafood restaurants among many other sights.
