- A mountain located in Kinokawa City, Wakayama Prefecture famous for its night view. In 1857, an 88 station pilgrimage route was built halfway up the mountain; this later fell into disrepair but a three kilometer portion was restored as a hiking course in 1987. Many people come here to enjoy the cherry blossoms in spring and the fall foliage in autumn. An observatory at the top of the mountain offers a sweeping view of the Kinokawa Plain. A 30 minute drive from the Kaminogo Interchange.

- "This gorge is located upstream on the Nyu River at the foot of Mt. Koya. It is a scenic spot where there are a series of spectacular rock formations called the ""48 rocks of Tamagawa"" including such as Kameiwa (turtle rock) and Sarutobiiwa (flying monkey rock), as well as waterfalls such as Goko Falls and Shiraito Falls. The area is covered with forests and you can enjoy the scenery throughout the four seasons. It is popular for its hiking course and as a campsite with cherry blossoms and fresh greenery in the spring, dipping in and fishing in the clear streams where there are sweetfish and fireflies in the summer, and the colorful autumn leaves of trees such as maple and Japanese sumac in the autumn. A fishing ticket is required when fishing for sweetfish or dwarf rill trout."
