Mount Kumazawa

熊沢岳

Komagane, Nagano / Okuwa, Nagano · Elevation 2,778 m

Mount Kumazawa (2,778 m) stands on the main ridge of the Chūō Alps between Mount Hinokio and Mount Utsugi, on the boundary of Komagane City and Ōkuwa Village in Nagano Prefecture, within Chūō-Alps Quasi-National Park. A granite block crowns the summit and offers wide views; the eastern flank holds the Ikenodaira cirque, where dwarf pine gives way to alpine flora. The peak is a normal waypoint on the long Utsugi–Higashikawa–Kumazawa–Hinokio traverse and is included in the One Hundred Highest Mountains of Japan.
