A solo una hora del centro de Tokio, el Monte Takao es uno de los destinos más populares para excursionistas. También conocida como "Takaosan", la montaña es una parte protegida del Meiji no Mori Takao Cuasi-National Park. Ofrece un hermoso paisaje, un templo interesante y atractivas oportunidades de senderismo. El colorido follaje alrededor de la montaña y el parque nacional lo convierten en un destino popular para la observación anual del follaje otoñal.
Una red de rutas de senderismo conduce a las laderas de Takaosan. Sin embargo, la mayoría de los visitantes utilizan la ruta de senderismo nº 1, que es ancha, en su mayoría pavimentada y pasa por todos los sitios importantes en su camino hacia la cumbre de 599 metros de altura.
El Takaosan se considera una montaña sagrada y muchos visitantes rezan por suerte en el Templo Yakuoin, que se encuentra en el camino. Las estatuas de dioses, una con nariz larga y otra con pico de cuervo, se pueden encontrar en el templo y en otros lugares alrededor de la montaña.
