The 3.6-km-long hiking trail is fun for beginners and takes 1 hour and 10 minutes to walk. The trail takes hikers around the mystical five lakes and ponds of Goshikinuma, or the "Five Colored Marshes", including Lake Bishamon. There is little elevation change, making it an easy walk.

Best season: Jul., Aug.

Point: While the trail is wide and easy to walk, caution is needed due to scattered rocks and mud caused by rain. In addition, every year, snow remains on the trail until late April, making it difficult to walk.
