Dewa Mountains (Japanese: 出羽山地) is a mountain range that runs north and south on the west side of the Tohoku region of Japan.[2] The mountain range spans Aomori, Akita, and Yamagata prefectures.[2][3][4] The highest peak of the mountain range is Mount Chokai (2,236m).[5]
The range is the focal point for the Akinomine (秋の嶺 "peak of autumn") ritual, which is observed by the Mount Haguro lineage of Shugendō.[6]
