Mt. Kakuda

This 481.7-meter mountain is located in Nishikan Ward, Niigata City. It has the designated Sado-Yahiko-Yoneyama Quasi-National Park, with abundant nature that allows visitors to observe much of the vegetation that grows naturally in the prefecture, including flowers such as Primula modesta and Asian fawnlily, which bloom in the spring. There are seven maintained mountain trails here, and visitors can see the Sea of Japan and Sado Island from the summit.
