Toilets on Mt. Daisen
There are very few toilets on the trail up the mountain. Hikers leaving the trail to relieve themselves pollutes the environment and damages the vegetation. The mountain hut at the top does have a flushing eco-toilet, but the tank has to be brought down to the foot of the mountain for periodic emptying. To preserve the environment of Mt. Daisen for future generations, please follow these five points of toilet etiquette:
1) Make sure that you are in good health before climbing the mountain.
2) Visit a toilet before starting off.
3) Carry your own portable toilet.
4) Use the toilet at the summit only if necessary.
5) Take all your trash home, including toilet paper.
