Park + hiking • Yugawara (Makuyama)
概要
The plum festival (梅の宴) runs from the first weekend of February through the first weekend of March each year. The 4,000 ume trees are planted on a sloping hillside that reads as a pink-and-white amphitheatre when the bloom peaks - a view the station-area coffee cluster simply cannot match. Outside festival weeks, the same hillside is quiet; outside plum season, the trees are green and the trailhead is unchanged.
The summit hike is 5 kilometres round-trip, climbing to 626 metres. A beginner-level walk by Japanese standards: no ropes, no scrambling, clear signage. The summit opens onto Sagami Bay with the Hatsushima and Izu peninsulas visible on clear days. A typical pace is 2.5 hours up-and-back with a summit break. Bring water, proper shoes, and a light layer if you’re walking in the cooler months.
Access is a 15-minute bus ride from Yugawara Station to the 「幕山公園」 stop. During plum-festival weekends the bus fills up early; plan for the first run (before 9 a.m.) or for a mid-afternoon slot after the initial wave has returned.
