A mountain pass that was once the border between Ise Province and Kii Province. Even after the route to Kii was moved to Kasaka Pass, this road was used as a daily route until the early Showa period. Travelers heading from Ise to Kumano saw the sea of Kumano for the first time after standing on this mountain pass, which was the gateway to the sacred place of 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.
