Named after its comb-like shape, this mountain is famous for Japan's leading colonies of irises in early summer. The trekking paths through mystical mossy forests feel like a fantasy movie world. From the 2,052m summit, you can enjoy a grand panorama with Mt. Fuji in the front and the Southern Alps in the back.
