A high peak in the western Sanuki Mountains on the border between Kagawa and Tokushima Prefectures. It is 927 meters above sea level. Its topography is made up of the Izumi Sandstone Formation, which is made up of sandstone, agglomerate, and shale, and the summit is flat compared to the steep slopes of the mountainside. On the Tokushima side of the peak is the 66th temple of the 88 Shikoku Pilgrimage, Unpenji Temple. A road runs from the Tokushima side, but the pilgrimage route is on the Kagawa side, and many mileposts and guideposts remain. The peak is a good observation deck, and the sunset over the Mitoyo Plain and Hiuchi Nada Sea is particularly beautiful. In 1987 (Showa 62), the Unpenji Ropeway opened from Oonohara Town (now Kanonji City), Kagawa Prefecture, making it easier to visit Unpenji Temple and increasing the number of tourists.

香川・徳島県境の讃岐(さぬき)山脈西部の高峰。標高927メートル。砂岩、集塊岩、頁(けつ)岩からなる和泉(いずみ)砂岩層の地形で、傾斜の急な山腹に対し頂上は平坦(へいたん)。頂上の徳島県側に四国八十八か所の66番札所雲辺寺がある。徳島県側からは自動車道が通じるが、遍路道は香川県側にあり、里程標や道しるべが多く残されている。頂上はよい展望台で、三豊(みとよ)平野や燧灘(ひうちなだ)に沈む夕日はとくに美しい。1987年(昭和62)、香川県大野原(おおのはら)町(現、観音寺(かんおんじ)市)から雲辺寺ロープウェイが開通、雲辺寺への参拝が便利になるとともに、観光客も増えている。 [稲田道彦] [参照項目] | |出典 小学館 日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)について 情報 | 凡例 |
