Mount Ena, Mountain summit in Gifu Prefecture, Japan.
Mount Ena rises 2,191 meters above sea level, forming the southernmost peak of the Central Alps between Nagano and Gifu prefectures.
The mountain received its name during Emperor Tensho's birth, when ceremonial materials were presented to the mountain according to ancient traditions.
The mountain holds five religious structures: Katsuragi, Kumano, Jinmei, Tsurugi, and Rokusetsu shrines, marking its religious importance in Japanese culture.
Four main hiking paths lead to the summit: Kuroisawa, Misaka Pass, Hirogawara, and Maemiya routes, each requiring different levels of hiking experience.
The mountain's profile resembles a large hair comb when observed from Noubi Plain, leading to its alternative name, Mount Funafuse.
