This gem of a run begins from the east end of the Higashi Ward. A paved path runs along the east edge of the Mikazuki Lake for about 4 miles out and back. It’s mostly elevated from the water, with intermittent views. The path is wide, but car-free, and there are distance markers along the way. There are connections to several other trails in the area, including routes to Shiratake and the Tachibanayama Castle.
