Mount Iwaguro, Mountain summit in Kumakogen, Japan
Mount Iwaguro rises to an elevation of 1,746 meters, featuring dense forests, rocky outcrops, and numerous hiking trails connecting to neighboring peaks.
The mountain has been a significant landmark for navigation among fishermen and traders throughout the Edo period of Japanese history.
The mountain paths hold religious importance for practitioners of Shinto and Shugendo, who regularly traverse the trails for spiritual practices.
Access to Mount Iwaguro begins at the Ishizuchi Skyline Drive endpoint, where hikers can start their journey from an earthen hut at the trailhead.
During spring, the mountain slopes display natural gardens of Akebono azaleas, creating patterns of color across the landscape.
