Besides Shigisan is a holy place for religious believers, it is also a favourite place for hiking people. Though the mountain is not so high, but you cannot walk to the top of the mountain without walking on steep road like stairways in a building. There are many hiking courses around the mountain and you can enjoy beautiful sceneries.
Even without hiking, you can also enjoy cherry blossoms in spring (early April) and red leaves in autumn (end of November to beginning of December).
