Mount Kannabe

Japanese: 神鍋山 - かんなべやま
Mount Kannabe

A mountain in Toyooka City in northern Hyogo Prefecture. It is 469 meters above sea level. It occupies a corner of Hyonosen-Ushiroyama-Nagisan Quasi-National Park. It is a troide-type volcano that was the last to erupt in the volcanic activity of the Hokutan Mountains. It is made of basalt, the same as Ookayama to the east, and the surrounding area is a plateau of lava and volcanic ash called Shiwa-no-Yo. Lava flows out along the Inaba River as far as the confluence with the Maruyama River. The mountainside is the center of the Kannabe Kogen Ski Resort, which is bustling with camping visitors in the summer. A bus runs from JR Sanin Main Line Ebara Station to the ski resort.

兵庫県北部、豊岡市(とよおかし)にある山。標高469メートル。氷ノ山後山那岐山国定公園(ひょうのせんうしろやまなぎさんこくていこうえん)の一角を占める。北但(ほくたん)山地の火山活動では最後に噴出したトロイデ型の火山。東方の大岡山と同じ玄武岩からなり、一帯は皺(しわ)ヶ野とよばれる溶岩と火山灰の高原である。溶岩は稲葉川沿いに円山(まるやま)川との合流地付近にまで流出している。山腹は神鍋高原スキー場の中心で夏はキャンプなどでにぎわう。JR山陰本線江原駅からスキー場までバスが通じる。
