Mount Kuroni

Mount Kuroni [窟粮山 くろに・さん] is a mountain located in the Hohara range on the border between Hamae and Heisai Prefectures. It is the third-tallest in the range, with a height of around 1,300 metres, and is located above the historically-significant Honzan Pass. Kuroni Temple, built in the early 1400s, sits at the base of the mountain.
=== Honzan Pass ===
The Honzan Pass is a narrow stretch of low, flat land which runs through the middle of the Hohara Mountains and creates a natural pass through the otherwise impenetrable range. For centuries it was used by travelers on the nishi no nari (Salt Road) and by others partaking in inter-prefectural travel.
