- Akita Yamamoto-gun Happocho Hachimori
- "A mountain located in Hachimori, Happo Town, Yamamoto County, Akita Prefecture. The mountain's name, which literally translates to ""Stop Mountain,"" is said to be derived from an order to stop lumbering on the mountain. In order to preserve the area's fountainhead, it has been protected since the Edo period, and even today visitors can take in the area's natural beech forest. Situated not even 200 meters above sea level, and with a walking path, it's easy for visitors to enjoy trekking here, but a local guide is required to climb the actual mountain."

Akita Areas
Famed for its sake and samurai, Akita prefecture offers quintessential Japanese culture in a non-touristy setting. Alongside the celebrated rice paddies and historical sites of the region lies dramatic natural scenery in the form of the rugged coastline of the Oga Peninsula and the Dakigaeri Gorge, best visited in autumn, when the leaves begin to change color.
