Mt. Hiraniwadake

平庭岳

Kuji, Iwate · Elevation 1,060 m

Hiraniwadake (1,060 m) rises in Yamagata-cho, Kuji City, in the northern Kitakami Highlands of Iwate Prefecture. Its mid-slopes host Hiraniwa Highland, famed as Japan's largest stand of white birch and a noted azalea (rengetsutsuji) field, and the whole massif is designated as the Kuji-Hiraniwa Prefectural Natural Park. A maintained trail climbs from the highland through birch forest and bamboo grass to the summit, with the option to continue south to Tobetsudake and Akkamori across the Kuzumaki Town boundary.
