The Ochudo was a dedicated pilgrimage route; historically only repeat climbers could walk certain segments, and Komitake Shrine has served worshippers for over a thousand years.
Portions of the Ochudo are seasonally closed for safety and restoration; follow trail markers, pack out waste, and respect restricted zones to protect fragile alpine flora.
