This areas provides nice nature walks as well as temples and a large Buddha statue (largest stone version in Japan of about 30 meters). The area is on a hill (or mountain depending on definition) close to Kanaya on the Chiba peninsula.
Best time of the year to visit is the time when it is less than 25 degrees (Centigrade) as walking up and down can be quite cumbersome for many people. If you are well used to trekking, it is quite ok even in warmer weather.
