Mt. Kabuto Observation Deck

Japan, Kanzaki, Kumihama-cho, Kyotango City, Kyoto Prefecture, 629-3441

Located in the southeast of Kumihama Bay, Mt. Kabuto is 191.7m above sea level and is an isolated hill made of rhyolite volcanic rock that intruded into the Miocene Toyooka Formation. In the area surrounding Mt. Kabuto, stones in the shape of abacus beads are extracted from the weathered rhyolite pebbles. From the top of Mt. Kabuto, you can enjoy picturesque views of Kumihama Bay, the Sea of Japan, and Shotenkyo Sandbar that lies between them. The Legend of Kabutoyama & the Man-Eating Rock Once upon a time, not one of the lumberjacks who went up into the moutain returned and it is said that they were eating by a man-eating rock that invaded the mountain. One day, a brave young man challenged the rock and they became good friends. The rock revealed that it didn't like red clay, so the young man painted it with red clay and it stopped eating people.
