As of January 23, 2018, the summit of the volcano has been off-limits to the public. This closure includes the three crater lakes.
One of its greatest features are the three crater lakes on its summit. The largest of these lakes is the Yu-gama crater lake, which offers an incomparable sight with its turquoise-blue water. It is also the most acidic lake in all of Japan.
