Mount Teshio, Mountain peak in Kitami Mountains, Japan

Mount Teshio reaches an elevation of 1,557.6 meters and stands as the highest point in the Kitami Mountains between Shibetsu and Takinoue regions.

The mountain area received official recognition as Mount Teshio Prefectural Natural Park on January 6, 1978, establishing its status as a protected natural zone.

Japanese people refer to the mountain as Teshio-dake (天塩岳), and it serves as the primary source of the Teshio River, which flows through Hokkaido.

Three climbing routes access the summit: the New Trail at 5.4 kilometers, Mount Mae Teshio Trail at 9.1 kilometers, and the Historic Trail at 4 kilometers.

The mountain's felsic rock formation dates back to the Middle Miocene period, approximately 15 to 7 million years ago, marking its volcanic origins.
