The symbol of Izu Oshima, Mt. Mihara, is an active volcano that spews out bright red magma during an eruption, just like Hawaii. It is one of the few volcanoes in Japan. A huge crater is open at the summit, and the impressive sight of the steam still rising is popular. On the way to the summit, you will learn about the mystery of the traces of the bright red lava flows that flowed out in the past, as well as the attractions that can only be seen on this plan.
The Ura Desert, a treasure of Oshima Island, is the only place in Japan marked as a "desert" on the map of the Geospatial Information Authority of Japan! It is a place that you would never think is in Japan, and is frequently used for TV drama and commercial shoots, as well as music video shoots for celebrities. As far as the eye can see, there is only inorganic, pitch black earth, and the only sound you can hear is the wind. It is exactly like the newborn Earth.
This course is recommended for first-time visitors to the island, and allows you to enjoy the spectacular view from Chihiroiwa Rock and observe nature along the way.

You can enjoy both the scenery and the thrill of mountain hiking!
