Mount Kaba, Granite mountain in Ibaraki Prefecture, Japan
Mount Kaba rises 709 meters above sea level, forming part of the Tsukuba mountain range with its granite composition and distinct peak formation.
The western section of Mount Kaba developed into a national center for stone carvings through the establishment of multiple quarries over time.
The Haiden of Kaba Shrine stands at the mountain summit, representing traditional Shinto practices and religious significance in Japanese mountain worship.
Hikers can access Mount Kaba through marked trails within the Suigo-Tsukuba Quasi-National Park, connecting the cities of Sakuragawa and Ishioka.
The mountain shares borders with neighboring peaks Maruyama, Ontakesan, Amabikiyama, and Hōkyōsan, creating a continuous natural barrier in southern Ibaraki.
