What is the smallest mountain in the world? TOP4 ranking
Why did you want to climb Mount Everest?
“Because it’s there.”
Said the mountaineer.
However, there are mountains in the world that are very easy to climb.
Most of them are in Japan!
So this time, I would like to introduce the lowest mountain in the world by ranking!
What is the definition of a mountain?
Before entering the ranking, let’s check the definition of mountain.
According to the Geographical Survey Institute, if the following three conditions are met,
It seems to be a mountain.
1. Do locals call it a mountain?
2. Does the local government give an official name?
3. Does the Geographical Survey Institute determine that the description is appropriate?
By the way, it doesn’t matter if it’s artificial or natural.
4th Sotetsuyama 6.97m

Sotetsuyama in Ohama Park, Sakai City, Osaka Prefecture
The name comes from the fact that tree (sotetsu) are planted on the mountaintop.
Because it is an artificial mountain and has a first-class triangulation station in Ohama Park
The sign says, “The lowest mountain in Japan with a first-class triangulation station.”
* A triangulation point is a point that serves as a reference for longitude, latitude, and altitude when used for triangulation.

Bentenyama is located in Tokushima City, Tokushima Prefecture.
There is a magnificent torii gate at the entrance.
And if you look at the official homepage …
↑ It says bentenyama is the lowest mountain in Japan! ??
Isn’t it 3rd place?
In fact, it is the lowest mountain in Japan as a natural mountain.
The mountain opening is held around June every year,
It seems that you can climb up in about 1 minute.
2nd Mt. Tenpo 4.53m

Tempozan in Tempozan Park, Minato-ku, Osaka.
When you come to the top of the mountain, there is so cute green dude will welcome you.
It is an artificial mountain (artificial hill), and it seems that there is a second-class triangulation point on the mountaintop.

By the way, it seems that there is a rescue team of the mountaineering club,
but it is so low that no rescue request has come.
1st Mt. Hiyori 3m!

Hiyoriyama in Gamo, Miyagino-ku, Sendai City, Miyagi Prefecture
It was 6m above sea level until 1996,
but it disappeared for a while due to the Great East Japan Earthquake that occurred on March 11, 2011.
However, locals rebuilt the mountain using gravel, and on April 9, 2014,
it was certified as the lowest mountain (3m) in Japan by the Geographical Survey Institute.

It was the best place to watch the sunrise over the sea.
I just wish for reconstruction (˘ω˘)
