Mount Ryūmon

龍門山

Kinokawa, Wakayama · Elevation 756 m

Mount Ryūmon is a 755.9 m peak in Kinokawa City, Wakayama Prefecture, and the highest of the Ryūmon mountain range. Its conical, Fuji-like profile has earned it the affectionate nickname 'Kishū Fuji'. The summit overlooks the Kinokawa basin and on clear days reaches as far as Awaji Island, while the trails pass landmarks such as the prefecturally designated Jishaku-iwa (Magnet Rock), Myōjin-iwa, a wind cave, and a small shrine to the dragon-king Zen'nyo. It is a habitat for Kii-shimotsuke (a Wakayama endemic) and the endangered Luehdorfia Gifu butterfly, and is counted among the Kansai Hyakumeizan, Kinki Hyakumeizan, and 100 Local Fujis.
