Mount Ashitaka (Echizen-dake, 1,504.2 m) is the highest peak of the Ashitaka Range, an ancient volcano facing the southern slopes of Mount Fuji and straddling Numazu, Susono, Fuji, and Nagaizumi in Shizuoka Prefecture. The range comprises nine peaks — Echizen, Ihai, Yobiko, Hakamagoshi and the eponymous Ashitaka summit among them — with Echizen-dake as the highest. Lying within Fuji-Hakone-Izu National Park, it is famed for Ashitaka azalea and Yamaboushi blooms and serves as one of the finest viewpoints of Mount Fuji. It is listed in the 200 Famous Japanese Mountains.
