This is the shortest trail, and the closest one from JR Kamakura Station among all the Kamakura hiking trails. The trail traverses the ridges of Gion-yama Hills, starting from stone steps at the back of the Yagumo-jinja Shrine and ending at the site where Tosho-ji Temple used to be. It takes about only one hour and is relatively easy. The trail has a great view of Mt. Fuji, the bay and Tsurugaoka Hachimangu Shrine. An index of this series is here.
