Route: Amida South Ridge Loop (Japan)

The route begins at Funayama Car Park, and heads south across a couple of small streams before climbing up onto the central ridge. A well defined path follows until the route breaks free from the treeline (around 2500m) it then veers south along a sharp ridge line. The final climb is on a  slightly exposed waterfall ... the trail then winds through a rocky scree slope until the top... the descent follows the traditional route down to the car park.
