高島トレイル
The Takashima Trail traverses 12 peaks along the central divide of Shiga Prefecture, threading deep into mountains so remote that wild camping is the main accommodation option beyond the popular trailhead sections. It is considered one of the quietest and least developed trails in Japan, with the most accessible stretches — around Mt. Norikura and Mt. Akasaka — drawing hikers for their easy reach from Makino Station.
