Mount Komochi, Stratovolcano in Gunma Prefecture, Japan
Mount Komochi rises to an elevation of 1,296 meters, featuring steep slopes and a prominent rock formation known as Shishi Rock along its trails.
The mountain received recognition as part of both the 100 Famous Kanto Mountains and 100 Famous Gunma Mountains, marking its regional importance through generations.
Local residents from Shibukawa, Numata, and Takayama municipalities maintain strong connections to the mountain through seasonal festivals and traditional hiking practices.
Hikers must use chains and ladders to navigate the vertical sections near Shishi Rock, requiring proper equipment and favorable weather conditions for safe passage.
The mountain contains a musical road that produces the melody of When You Wish Upon a Star when vehicles drive at specific speeds.
