From this pass at 305 m above sea level, you can have a panoramic view of the Kumanonada Sea. There is a legend that when Kukai, founder of the Shingon esoteric school of Buddhism, made a hole in the ground with his cane where the Mizutsubo Jizo statue stands on the way to the pass, water sprang up. The Oriyama Jizo statue stands at the western trailhead and mossy cobblestones remain in that area.
