A new attraction in Ishigaki Island! Trekking through the legendary Nosoko Marpei!Nosoko Marpei, the second largest mountain in Ishigaki Island surrounded by beautiful sea, is 282m above sea level. 30 minutes up the mountain, you will see the rock at the top. There you can enjoy a 360° panoramic view!Full support by experienced guides
It is not mountain climbing but rather trekking through the jungle. Because the altitude is not that high, the appeal of this trek is that you can have fun while climbing!
Some parts of the trail are steep, but there are ropes and guides will be with you, so children and beginners will be fine.
Visitors can enjoy mountain climbing while listening to explanations of the rare flora and fauna of the subtropical zone!
Ishigaki Island Tours rents everything you need for trekking, including boots, so that you can climb with peace of mind.
The Nosoko Marpe climb is almost entirely on unspoiled mountain paths. As you climb along narrow and trackless paths, you are bound to run into grass and trees. Therefore, we recommend that you wear lightweight long sleeves and long pants (clothes that can get dirty)!

The advice given during the climb was very accurate and helped me to have fun and feel at ease without getting tired. The negative ions of the greenery were pleasant, and the view from the top of the mountain was fantastic! I was a bit hesitant to go because of the rain, but I am glad I did. I would definitely use other tours as well. I am very satisfied.

550代Month of posting: 2023/10The morning sun was sparkling and dazzling, and it was a great view! Since it was the first morning, there were few people and we were able to take many great pictures and videos. I was a little worried about participating in the tour alone, but we had a lot of fun talking with each other, including during the tour. I am very satisfied!

420代Posted Mon: 01/2018Trees I had never seen before were growing in pieces. They were sparsely sized and the air was pleasant. It was like a forest that no one had taken care of. The paths were also untouched and full of nature! After the climb, the sense of accomplishment made me want a glass of awamori!

520代Posted Mon: 11/2017It was a little scary, but the view from the top was the best I have seen in Ishigaki Island. I came here with my husband, and it was a joy to see him as excited as a child. Thank you for the pictures!

450代Posted Mon: 08/2017I usually take care of the trees in the hospital. This nature is not a made nature. If you deviate from one of the trails, it's a place you don't want to go in, but I start to wonder what is going on. It was a tour that will remain vividly in my memory.

540代Posted Mon: 07/2017The elevation is lower than expected. It is not even Mt. Therefore, there is no forest limit. I do a lot of mountain climbing and felt it was similar to the Boso Peninsula. In general, the height of the trees is high. A person can easily fit in them. It is truly a jungle. I was overwhelmed!

420代Posted Mon: 2017/04This is not Japan. It was not a "Japanese mountain" to the extent that I thought so. Even after climbing up the mountain, the trees and grass did not disappear. There were so many leaves that I could not see where I was walking. It was nice to have a great view point. I love stone walls! LOL!
