Magome-juku sits at an elevation of 600 meters above sea level. Magome-juku is unique because it's built along a slope, while other post towns are built on flat land.

Historical buildings line both sides of the slope, and the views from the hillside are magnificent. On clear days the surrounding mountains are visible in the distance. Magome-juku continues for 600 meters, all uphill, but the views are remarkable and never get old.
