ONAMEDAKE - 8TH STATION. 2DAYS HIKING Mount Akita-Komagatake (秋田駒ヶ岳) is with an altitude of 1637 meters one of the highest mountains in Akita Prefecture and the second highest mountain in Towada-Hachimantai National Park. It is an active volcano that last erupted in 1970-71. The mountain has multiple peaks and a network of relatively easy trails with attractive views that make for a rewarding few hours of hiking. The main trailhead for hiking Akita-Komagatake is located at the mountain's 8th Station (about 80% up the mountainside) at an elevation of 1305 meters. Because of the limited capacity of the parking lot there, the access road is closed to private cars on weekends and public holidays from June to October and every day from late June to late August. During these periods a shuttle bus is in operation. The highest of Mount Akita-Komagatake's peaks is Onamedake (男女岳), with an easily accessible round summit 100 meters above Amida Pond to the north. The second highest of the peaks is Odake (男岳) south of the pond. The trail leading there is considerably steeper and rougher, but comes with more rewarding views into the mountain's main crater and the lightly smoking Medake (女岳) on one side and down onto Lake Tazawa on the other side. Getting there and around By car, The road to the 8th Station of Mount Akita-Komagatake is closed to private vehicles on weekends and public holidays from June to October and every day from late June to late August.
