Mt. Inari is the southernmost peak of the Higashiyama Sanju Roppo, and it is a gently sloped mountain of 233 meters in height. In ancient times, believers gathered on Mt. Inari where the kami reside. In the Heian Period, writer Seishonagon climbed the mountain on Hatsu-uma no Hi (the first horse day in February), and she wrote about it in The Pillow Book. Climbing Mt. Inari on the first horse day in February is an old tradition, and it is also called Hatsu-uma Mode, or Fuku-mairi, a visit for fortune. 
The mountain has shinseki deity sites at such spots as Ichinomine (first peak), Ninomine (second peak), and Sannomine (third peak), and you can pay respects at each of these spots. Mt. Inari has many stone monuments called “Otsuka”, and they have the names of many kami carved into them. This speaks to the many aspects and depth of the Inari faith. 
If you have time, why not hike up to the top of Mt. Inari? It takes approximately two hours to see all of Mt. Inari.
