Mt. Nokanoike
野鹿池山
Miyoshi, Tokushima / Ōtoyo-chō, Kochi · Elevation 1,294 m
A 1,294.4-meter peak in the western part of the Tsurugi Mountains range, straddling the border between Yamashiro Town in Miyoshi City (Tokushima) and Ōtoyo Town in Nagaoka District (Kōchi). A small wetland pond — Nokanoike — sits just below the summit on the Yamashiro side and gives the mountain its name; the nearby Nokanoike Shrine is dedicated to it. The summit area harbors a pure Rhododendron degronianum subsp. heptamerum forest, large sphagnum-moss communities and northern relict flora; locals celebrate the Shakunage (rhododendron) Festival on the first Sunday of June. A forest road from the Ikawa-Ikeda IC reaches a 20-car trailhead car park, with a beginner-friendly 1½-hour climb to the top. Listed in the Bunken Tozan Guide for Tokushima and Shikoku Hyakuzan.
