9月第1週目の金曜から車中泊して土曜日の朝5時から菅の台バスセンターで並びました。天気は良く、ロープウェイで登ったその先は絶景でした。剣ヶ池では上手く撮れませんでしたが、富士山も少し見れてラッキーでした。 9月でしたが、日が照ってる分少し暑かったです。服装は半袖に薄手のパーカーで丁度良いかと思います。

24.10.12三連休初日。天気も晴れて、遊歩道を巡りながら絶景を楽しめました！千畳敷カールでは紅葉最盛期を過ぎて落葉気味ですが、道中のロープウェイでは比較的楽しめるかな。ただ、連休中はかなりの激混み… 午前中は登山客、昼前には海外の方含めた団体客が多い印象。バス等も1時間以上の待ち時間前提かと。事前にオンラインチケットも買っておいたほうが無難。今回は遊歩道散策のみでお土産屋を買って帰路へ。四季折々の景色も楽しめるようですし、登山道にもチャレンジしてみたいので、またいつか挑戦したいと思います！

ロープウェイの終着駅から出発し、しばらく歩くと登山コースの分岐点に。登山コースは整備されていて、階段ではないけど、石が敷き詰められ、砂利で滑るようなことがない。ただ、道が広くないので前の人が遅いとそのペースで上り下りしなければならない。のんびり行けば周りの絶景を楽しむことができる。小さな子供やお年寄りも登ってた。空気も薄いので、水分とって休みながら登ろう。
