Hiking
When climbing Mount Wakakusa, you should definitely follow the signposted path. An alternative route via a byway quickly led to difficult terrain. The view at the end was really great and compensated for all the hardships.

Take the time to climb Mount Wakakusa which peaks at 342 m. It offers breathtaking views of Nara! And you will enjoy the deer just as much in a splendid natural setting.
