Fjell og innsjøer i Kamikōchi

Hotaka Peaks & Alpine Lakes

This collection encompasses the high-altitude terrain of the Northern Japan Alps within Chubu Sangaku National Park. It features the 3,190-meter Mt. Okuhotaka, Japan's third-highest peak, alongside the technical rock tower of Gendarme. The list also includes the glacial waters of Kamikochi valley, such as Taisho Pond—formed by the 1915 eruption of Mt. Yakedake—and the sacred Myojin Pond, home to the Hotaka Shrine Okumiya. These landmarks define the region's volcanic history and alpine geography.
