Mount Otobe

乙部岳

Otobe, Hokkaido · Elevation 1,017 m

Mount Otobe is a 1,016.9 m peak on the boundary between Otobe Town and Assabu Town in southwestern Hokkaido — the highest mountain in both municipalities, in the central Oshima Peninsula. Its summit carries a first-class triangulation point named 'Otobedake' and supports a meteorological rainfall radar reached by a paved service road. The mountain name is linked to a legend that Minamoto no Yoshitsune passed by during his flight north, and a Kurō-take Shrine built in 1859 stands on its western foothills. The standard ascent is by the Ridge or Stream courses; the peak appears on the Otobe town crest and is counted among the 100 Famous Mountains of Hokkaido.
