The Hida Mountains, or Northern Alps make up the majority of the park. There are many points in the Hida Mountains within the park that are above 3,000 m (9,843 ft), including Kamikōchi, Mount Norikura, Mount Hotaka and Mount Tate. The park is home to numerous gorges, ravines, and dramatically shaped escarpments,[1] as well as the headwater of Japan's longest river, the Shinano River, which begins here as the Azusa River on the southeastern slope of Mount Yari.[2]
RecreationEdit
The Chūbu-Sangaku National Park has become the most important hiking area in Japan.[1] Often tourists visit the nearby mountainous highland valley, Kamikochi.
