The altitude of Senjo-ga-take is 3033m. Although it looks calm, it is a 3000m-class mountain in the South Alps. To reach the top of this mountain, you need climbing equipment and attitude.
The area around the summit is a curled terrain that is said to be a trace of glacial landforms. From the top of the mountain, you can see the mountains in the northern part of the South Alps.
