Kengamine is a 1,540 m peak on the boundary of Yaita and Nasushiobara, Tochigi Prefecture, in the Shakagatake volcanic group of the Takahara complex within Nikko National Park. It forms a broad shoulder on the ridge east of Shakagatake and is a key waypoint on the traverse from Omamadai parking area through the Happogahara ridges toward Shakagatake, Nishihiradake and Keichozan. Around 200,000 Japanese azaleas bloom across Happogahara in May–June, when Yaita holds the Takahara mountain-opening festival.
