Mount Kanmuri, Mountain peak in Hatsukaichi, Japan

Mount Kanmuri rises to 1,339 meters above sea level, marking the westernmost point of the Chugoku Mountains in Hiroshima Prefecture.

The mountain received its designation as part of the Nishi-Chugoku Sanchi Quasi-National Park to preserve its natural features and geological significance.

The name Kanmuri appears on six different mountains in Hiroshima Prefecture, leading to the addition of Yoshiwa to differentiate this specific peak.

Visitors can reach Mount Kanmuri within 10 minutes by car from the Yoshiwa Interchange on the Chugoku Expressway, which runs along its southern base.

The southern slopes of Mount Kanmuri contain extensive rhododendron stands designated as natural monuments by Hiroshima Prefecture authorities.
