40.6km ridge toll road down the Izu Peninsula spine with Mt Fuji and twin-bay views
The Izu Skyline is a 40.6km toll road running along the ridge of the eastern Izu Peninsula from Atami Pass south to Amagi Kogen, at elevations of roughly 170–730m. Following the spine of the peninsula it acts as a natural balcony with Sagami Bay to the east, Suruga Bay to the west and Mount Fuji on the northern horizon, mixing long sweepers with tighter bends popular with drivers and riders. It is a paid toll road, exposed to ridge-top fog and wind, and patrolled for speed.
