The Wake Alps in Wake Town, Okayama Prefecture, is a popular hiking spot where you can enjoy everything from traversing the mountain ridges to full-scale rock ridge walking, despite being a low mountain range.
As its name suggests, the Wake Alps are named after the landscape of a series of small mountains that resemble the Alps. Although the altitude is low, the exposed granite rocks and the mountain ridges that go up and down make this a popular hiking spot where beginners and veterans alike can experience the feeling of authentic mountain climbing. In particular, there is a rope area where you can climb the rock face, which will enhance the adventurous feeling of children around elementary school age.

The great attraction of the Wake Alps is the wonderful views from the observation decks and rock ridges that are set up everywhere, with a 360-degree panorama. Another attraction is the nature that changes with the seasons, and the scenery is even more amazing during the season of fresh greenery and on clear winter days.

The Wake Alps have multiple hiking courses, so you can choose one that suits your physical strength and time. There are a variety of courses, from the shortest course of about 1.5 hours to a full-fledged course that covers multiple peaks and takes about 4.5 hours.

[Useful points of concern]
Even though it is a low mountain, there are many rocky areas and steep slopes, so appropriate clothing and shoes for mountain climbing (such as non-slip trekking shoes) are essential. Rocks are slippery after rain, so you need to be especially careful. Don't forget to prepare drinks to stay hydrated and snacks. There are no toilets once you start climbing from the trailhead, so it's important to use them beforehand.
