Hashigui-iwa Rocks: Rocky Pillars of Wakayama | 橋杭岩

Hashigui-iwa Rocks: Rocky Pillars of Wakayama | 橋杭岩

At the southern most edge of the Kii Peninsula is one of the most unusual natural wonders in Japan. The craggy Hashigui-iwa Rocks [橋杭岩] is a group of 40 gigantic igneous rocks that form a line in the sea that is 850 meters long. The Hashigui-iwa Rocks and their pillar-like formation do indeed resemble the stakes of some long ago bridge that once connected Kii Oshima to land, hence their name the “Bridge Pillar Rocks”. It is easy to see why this area is one of the most photogenic places in Japan. No matter what time of day to come, this stunning feat of natural artistry will leave you in awe.

At low tide visitors can walk to Bentenjima Islet which is nearly in the middle of the row. In addition to this sightseeing spot being selected as one of Japan’s 100 best places to watch the sunrise, as it is popular to watch the sun rise over the Hashikuiiwa Rocks, it has also been designated as a National Place of Scenic Beauty and a Natural Monument.

▪️ Unfortunately, as there are so many rocks, you can’t see all of them from Kushimoto. If you want to see all of those rocks, you have to go to Kii Oshima.
