Due to the recent climbing boom, people who climb the mountains in the Northern or Southern Alps look like a line of ants during the season. Meanwhile, Shiomi-dake in the Southern Alps is an independent mountain that is off the vertical course. So, from here to Aino-dake, there are sparse climbers, and you can enjoy a leisurely stroll through the high mountains. There are also abundant alpine plants, and even when traversing makes you shudder, the flowers that bloom between the rocks calm such your fear.
最近の登山ブームで、シーズンともなれば北アルプスも南アルプスもアリの行列状態です。そんな中、南アルプスの塩見岳は縦走コースから外れている独立峰で、ここから間ノ岳までは登山客もまばらで、ゆっくりと高山の散策を楽しめます。高山植物も豊富で、時には身震いするようなトラバースもありますが、岩間に咲く花々があると、そんな怖さも吹っ飛びます。
