Mt. Nishi-Hōben

西鳳翩山

Yamaguchi, Yamaguchi / Hagi, Yamaguchi / Mine, Yamaguchi · Elevation 742 m

A 741.9-meter peak on the boundary between northern Yamaguchi City and Hagi City in Yamaguchi Prefecture, and the higher of the twin Hōben summits — the western counterpart of Higashi-Hōbenzan (734.2 m). Together the two form Hōbenzan, listed in the New Japan 100 Famous Mountains. Well-tended trails make this peak suitable for beginners, and clear days yield a 360-degree panorama across the Seto Inland Sea, the Akiyoshidai plateau, and on to the mountains of Kyūshū. Trailheads are about a 25-minute bus ride from JR Yamaguchi Station. Listed in Yamaguchi Hyakumeizan, Bōchō Hyakuzan and Suō 100 Hyakkei.
