Destaques
- Summit Observatory — 555 m elevation, 360° panorama with Ise Bay and Mt. Fuji to the east, Toba Bay and the Shima Peninsula to the south
- Sky Post — the red mailbox at the summit, where you can drop a postcard; the classic shot pairs it with Mt. Fuji
- Kongoshoji Temple — founded in the Heian period, the «inner sanctuary» of Ise Jingu; the Edo-period main hall was built by master shrine carpenters
- Foot Bath — beside the summit restaurant, free to use while gazing over Ise Bay; especially memorable in winter
- Ise-Shima Skyline — a 16.3 km scenic drive opened in 1964, with cherry blossoms, fresh green, and autumn colors across the seasons
