ZAO, Japan



With a height of 1841 meters, Mount Zao is one of the most prominent mountains in the Tohoku Region.

The active volcano features a beautiful crater with lake, known as Okama (御釜) due to its resemblance with a traditional cooking pot.

A spectacular road, the Zao Echo Line, leads to close to one of Mount Zao's secondary peaks, called Kattadake (1758 meters), tourists can view the Okama Crater without much effort.
