Sasagamine Pass, situated on the border of Ehime and Kochi prefectures, offers a serene escape at an elevation of 1027 meters. Historically part of the old Tosa Road, it now provides a tranquil driving experience along a quiet mountain road. While modern routes like the national highway, expressway, and Dosan Line connect the prefectures via tunnels, Sasagamine Pass offers a scenic alternative. The prefectural road leading to the pass provides a relaxing drive, perfect for those seeking a peaceful journey through the mountains. Best visited during the day to fully appreciate the natural surroundings.
