TsuZurato-togePass (Kumano Kodo Iseji Route)
Even after the route to Kii shifted to Kasaka Pass, this road was used as a daily route until the early Showa period, and travelers heading from Ise to Kumano saw the sea of Kumano for the first time by standing on this pass, a ``sacred place.''・It is the gateway to Kumano.
"Tsuzurato" means "ninety-nine folds." As the name suggests, the mountain pass road that descends to nagashima has a series of curves.
The road is still well maintained, and the cobblestones and stone walls are well preserved.
