Trail description

Tsubakuro, 2,763 m, is a granite peak of the Northern Alps in Azumino, in Chubu-Sangaku National Park. This route climbs from the Nakabusa Onsen trailhead up the Kassen ridge, one of the three steepest climbs of the Northern Alps, to the summit. The top is known for its white granite sand and sculpted rocks and for colonies of komakusa, the queen of alpine flowers. Rock ptarmigan live in the creeping pine around the summit.
