Hida Mountains: The Absolute Essentials

The Hida Mountains, or Northern Alps, encompass a dramatic landscape of volcanic peaks and alpine valleys across Nagano, Toyama, and Gifu. Key landmarks include the 186-meter-tall Kurobe Dam, the high-altitude Kamikochi highland, and the active volcano Mount Yake. The region is notable for its unique transportation systems, such as the double-decker Shinhotaka Ropeway, and remote geothermal sites like Takamagahara Onsen. This collection highlights the geological diversity and engineering feats found within one of Japan's most rugged mountain ranges.
