Mount Chō (蝶ヶ岳, Chougatake) at 2,677 m (8,783 ft) is a mountain located in Japan. Mount Chō is part of the Hida Mountains (Northern Alps) in Chūbu-Sangaku National Park, and is located in the cities of Azumino and Matsumoto in Nagano Prefecture. It is located to the south of Mount Jōnen on the ridgeline of the Jōnen Mountain Range. Mount Chō is a popular destination for hikers because it offers views of other famous Japanese mountains, including Mount Yari and Mount Hotakadake along the Panorama Ginza.
The summit of Mount Chō has a gentle slope, and near the summit, several small ponds are found, including Chougaike (蝶ヶ池) at 2,655 m (8,711 ft) and Youseinoike (妖精ノ池) at 2,605 m (8,547 ft). Viewed from Mount Chōyari, the double-ridgeline of Mount Chō can be seen. Much snow accumulates here, affecting the distribution of alpine plants. Near the summit is a zone of creeping pines, and it is a habitat for rock ptarmigan.
There's a trail leading to the summit.
The nearest mountain hut is Chōgatake Hyutte located 186m/611ft NNW of the summit.
