Mt. Ishikami, with an elevation of 358m, has long been considered a religious symbol. Ceremonies are held at Ishimaki Shrine, situated at the base of the mountain, in the early mornings of February every year to predict crop conditions in the area.
The summit of Mt. Ishimaki is made up of steep limestone boulders, which are host to a variety of animal and plant life only found in limestone terrain. The plant colony among the limestone rocks of Mt. Ishimaki has been designated as a national natural treasure.
A free parking area halfway up the mountain is the perfect spot for a bird’s eye view of the entire city of Toyohashi, and is also a popular spot for night drives. Nearby, the Toyohashi Ishimaki Musuem of Natural History provides information on plant life and other geological features, while the tourist hotel is a great place to relax.
