Mount Kasaga

笠ヶ岳

Minakami, Gunma / Katashina, Gunma · Elevation 2,058 m

Mount Kasaga (Oze) is a 2,057.5-meter peak in Katashina Village (Tone District), Gunma Prefecture, lying south of Mt. Shibutsu in the Oze area and rising in a striking conical form. Built of the same serpentine rock as Shibutsu, it harbors alpine flora — including the Miyama-murasaki — that grows nowhere else in Oze. From Hatomachi Pass via Oyamasawa-tashiro the summit takes about 3.5 hours, on a well-maintained but quiet trail within Oze National Park.
