Chugoku/Shikoku, and Kyushu, and some are nationally known, while others have been climbing for a long time. The lineup is rich in variety, including mountains that even those living in Japan may have never heard of. Kamuinupuri (857m) in Hokkaido is a soaring mountain overlooking Lake Mashu. You can experience a spectacular mountain walk that is far from the image of a low mountain.

Focusing on the low mountains can also lead to discovering the local charm of Japan. In addition, low mountains that are easy to challenge both physically and technically are perfect for beginners who are about to start climbing, as well as middle-aged and elderly climbers who have grown tired of high mountains. Please use the “Japan’s 100 Lowest Mountains” as a guideline for mountain selection, just like the “Japan’s 100 Famous Mountains.” In addition, the Japan 100 Low Mountains Stamp Rally is currently being held on the mountain stamp rally app “Yamasta”. After downloading the app, you can earn stamps by checking in at the mountaintop.
