History

Byakko

A subsidiary shrine of Ontake that this fox relates. Resting in Mitake, it forms one of the twin pillars of Ontake faith alongside the main shrine. The sacred mountain's protective spirit, holding the essence of fire, is concentrated here, elevating practitioners' hearts. A shrine where mountain power dwells.
