Nameko udon noodle is just perfect for hiking. Super comfy food! ¥600 for this with amazing view? A very good experience!

Mt. Kageshin "Triangulation point Kageshin hut" I went with my wife, eldest son, and grandchild in 2021. I ate soba, ramen, oden, and tempura. It is a tea house with a very large number of chairs and tables. I think the view is also open. The lake below my eyes is Lake Sagami, sorry if it's wrong. I tried boiling water for instant ramen using a trivet I just bought outdoors. I think Iwatani's trivet is convenient. Cylinders can also be diverted for household use, so convenience is high. The parking lot was free when I came here. Since the number is small, it might be a wait, but luckily, someone who came down from the mountain told me, please, and I was able to secure a parking lot. On the way back, I stopped by "Ukai Toriyama" for an early dinner.

There are 2 tea houses on Mt. Kageshin across the summit ("Aoki Chaya" and "Kageshin Hut"), but Aoki Chaya is a very historic old shop that has continued since the Taisho era. In the Taisho era, before the mountain climbing boom became as common as it is now, it is said that it started as a rest area for climbers and local residents in this area (Uratakao/around Kobotoke), which was a key point for forestry and life. The current shop owner (Mr. Aoki) is the 3rd generation (or 4th generation depending on how you count), and its light has been protected by the "Aoki Family" from generation to generation. Mt. Kageshin has a tradition that "Yokochi Kenmotsu Yoshinobu", a chief retainer of Hojo Ujiteru, the lord of Hachioji Castle during the Sengoku period, placed a beacon tower to monitor the invasion of the Takeda army. There is a strong theory that the "Kageshin" of the mountain name also comes from this name of Yokochi Kageshin (Yoshinobu). The place where Aoki Chaya stands is the very historical key point overlooking the border between Kai (Takeda) and Musashi (Hojo) during the Sengoku period. Miso soup full of large and plump nameko mushrooms is a standard dish that soaks into the body after climbing the steep slope from Kobotoke Pass.

Tea house at the summit of Mt. Kageshin. There used to be 2 tea houses on Mt. Kageshin, but since one moved to Kobotoke Shiroyama, it became one. Wild vegetable tempura seems to be a specialty, but nameko soup, sweet red bean soup, etc. that are often in mountain tea houses are good.

Canteen at the summit of Mt. Kageshin. About 2 hours from Mt. Jinba, and about 1.5 hours from Mt. Takao, making it the midpoint. Also, if the weather is good, you can overlook Mt. Fuji. Nameko from Fukushima Prefecture is a specialty, nameko udon 800 yen, nameko soup 350 yen, one bag of nameko 450 yen. Oden is 600 yen. It is a heated retort pack oden, but warm food eaten on the mountain is exceptional. Mt. Kageshin is said to be the birthplace of one of the Demon Slayer characters, Mist Hashira Muichiro Tokito (I don't think it was depicted in manga or anime), so Demon Slayer goods were also sold.
