Mount Nikoro

仁頃山

Saroma, Hokkaido / Kitami, Hokkaido · Elevation 829 m

Mount Nikoro (829.2 m) straddles Kitami City and Saroma Town in Hokkaidō's Kitami Mountain range. Because no higher peaks rise nearby, the summit gives wide views over the surrounding lowlands, and the mountain is treasured as a local hiking destination by Kitami residents. Six maintained trails — kept up by the Nikoro-yama Aikōkai (Nikoro Mountain Friends Association) — climb the peak from the Tomisato-ko Forest Park and other trailheads.
