Mount Hayama

Mount Hayama [坤山; はやま] is a dormant volcanic mountain situated in the Ikumo mountain range in north Kanton. It has an elevation of 940 metres. The mountain has only erupted twice in recorded history, although both eruptions were quite disastrous, resulting in tremours, rockfalls, landslides and large amounts of pyroclastic smoke.
The summit of Hayama is very heavily vegetated, with ancient yew, pine, azalea, rhododendron and hibiscus plants growing in abundance. Perhaps the most notable feature that hikers encounter while exploring the mountain is the Hayama Waterfall, hidden in the folds of the rocky southern face.
