Mt. Kurokasa

黒笠山

Tsurugi, Tokushima · Elevation 1,703 m

Mt. Kurokasa is a 1,703 m peak on the boundary between the Ichiu area of Tsurugi Town and the Higashi-Iya area of Miyoshi City in Tokushima Prefecture, a subsidiary peak of the Yahazuyama Range north of the Tsurugi Mountains. Its sharp pyramidal silhouette has earned it the nickname "Awa no Matterhorn," and the name is said to derive from the woven straw hat (amigasa) once worn by Muromachi-period travelers. The summit is reached in about two hours from Shirai hamlet in Ichiu via Kurokasa Shrine. The peak is included on the Shikoku 100 and the Tokushima Prefecture Mountain Guide.
