Mount Omoto

於茂登岳

Okinawa

於茂登岳 is a 525 m summit in Okinawa. The walk to the top is the reason to come: the route is the attraction rather than the approach to one, and the summit is reached on foot from a marked trailhead. Check the local trail authority for the current season, snow line and hut openings before setting out — these vary year to year and are not fixed by the calendar.

Why we picked it

A named summit with a real trail, listed here so a walking day can be built around the climb itself rather than a viewpoint reached by road.
