Summer Hiking Kickoff at Mount Daisen
As the summer hiking season approaches, the magnificent Mount Daisen, recognized as Japan's highest peak in the Chugoku region, welcomes adventurers. The Mercure Tottori Daisen Resort & Spa is gearing up to offer a delightful all-inclusive package for hikers, starting on
June 7, 2025. This initiative aims to provide a comfortable and memorable experience for visitors to this breathtaking national park.
Discover Mount Daisen's Splendor
Nestled at the base of Mount Daisen, just a
15-minute drive from the trailhead, the Mercure Tottori Daisen is designed for nature lovers. Known for its lush greenery and tranquil atmosphere, Mount Daisen is celebrated as a sacred mountain and features diverse trails that cater to all skill levels — from beginners to seasoned climbers. Moreover, the annual
Daisen Summer Mountain Opening Festival marks the onset of the climbing season, drawing both locals and visitors to honor safety and the beauty of nature.
Hiking routes such as the
Summer Mountain Trail offer easy access for families and novices, while the
Utopia Course challenges more experienced hikers with stunning views stretching over the Japan Sea and the Shimane Peninsula from the summit.
All-Inclusive Plan for Hikers
The hotel’s new
All-Inclusive Plan for Hikers not only focuses on comfortable accommodations but also includes:
1.
Food Support: Guests can enjoy hand-prepared
onigiri bento boxes, filled with traditional local flavors and nourishing snacks essential for a day in the trails. These are available from
6:30 AM for early risers.
2.
Physical Maintenance Support: Discover the healing properties of
Daisen Hot Springs at the hotel's outdoor baths, designed to soothe sore muscles post-hike. With sauna facilities and a foot bath in every room, relaxation is guaranteed after a long day on the mountain.
This comprehensive package is priced from
15,000 yen per person, and reservations are open from June 7 to November 2025.
Cultural Highlights for a Unique Experience
In addition to outdoor activities, hikers can indulge in local cultural festivities. The
Torch Procession, held on the evening before the Daisen Summer Mountain Festival, adds a mystical touch to the experience. Participants walk through the sacred
Ogamiyama Shrine with torches, illuminating the path and creating a memorable atmosphere.
The hotel also provides a central hub for various hiking trails ranging from simple
2-hour walks to more challenging
5-6 hour climbing courses.
