Our guide
Yashima is a flat-topped mountain in Takamatsu, only 292 m high, but well known for sightseeing, history and hiking. Our source says little more than that, so this page is short.
Kotoden-Yashima Station is about 1.6 km from the point this page is mapped to, in a straight line. We have not checked a route to the top, so plan the journey on the map and look for local information before you go. Also in Takamatsu is Ritsurin Garden.
