Mount Ōmuro, a cinder cone volcano in Shizuoka, Japan is an extinct volcano near the eastern coast of the Izu Peninsula, south of central Ito City. It is shaped like an inverted rice bowl and has a beautiful silhouette that can be seen from most places in the Izu Kogen area. Mount Omuro is about 580 meters high and has a crater with a diameter of about 300 meters which takes about 15 to 30 minutes to circle on foot.
To explore the crater, visitors are required to take a chair lift that ascends the mountain. Once at the summit, they can enjoy all-encompassing, 360-degree views, including sights like Mount Fuji and Oshima Island on clear days. For those seeking more adventure, the option to engage in archery at the crater's base or experience paragliding down the mountain's slopes is available. Many tourists also pair a visit to Mount Omuro with a trip to the nearby Izu Shaboten Zoo located at the mountain's foothill.
