Insider tip — Hakusan Suginoko Onsen, the cedar-grove spring of Hakusan, serves the forested foothills where plantation cedar forests established by the Maeda domain in the 17th century form a continuous canopy ascending toward the volcanic summit. The Hakusan mountain complex is worshipped as one of Japan three great sacred peaks alongside Fujisan and Tateyama — a stratovolcano that last erupted in 1659 and whose pilgrimage tradition dates to the Buddhist monk Taicho Daishi who first ascended the summit in 717 CE.
