Gozaisho 御在所 (Mie Prefecture)
Gozaisho is a beautiful mountain tucked away in rural Mie, near the border of Aichi and Gifu. It has a collection of unqiue rock formations and is the starting point for some great hikes across the Suzuka Mountain range. For those who are too lazy to do the hike or are using it as a base to do something a bit longer, you can take the ropeway to the top. During winter, the peak turns into a mini ski field.

Hosokute-juku to Mitake-juku Nakasendo 中山道 細久手宿から御嵩宿まで (Gifu Prefecture)
This hike is nothing special. It is one of the more boring parts of the Nakasendo with the Iroha tea house being the only thing that is slightly interesting.

Iwamura Castle 岩村城跡 (Gifu Prefecture)
Iwamura Castle is located in Iwamura-cho, Ena city. It is listed as one of the 100 famous castles in Japan. However, there isn't much castle to speak of. It is just the ruins of the castle. Some old bits of wall and other remains. Don't expect too much from Iwamura castle. But the hike up and around Iwamura is nice. If you are lucky (or unlucky) you might find some snakes and inoshishi knocking about.
