About Mount Akagi
Mount Akagi is a mountain. Location: Gunma, Japan. Elevation: 1,828 m.
Mount Akagi (赤城山, Akagi-yama; Red Castle) is a stratovolcano in Gunma Prefecture, Japan. The broad, low dominantly andesitic stratovolcano rises above the northern end of the Kanto Plain. It contains an elliptical, 3 km × 4 km (1.9 mi × 2.5 mi) summit caldera with post-caldera lava domes arranged along a NW–SE line. Lake Ono is located at the NE end of the caldera. An older stratovolcano was partially destroyed by edifice collapse, producing a debris-avalanche deposit along the south flank.
