Kiamondake Volcano, Japan

AIRVŪZ STAFF NOTE : Top contributor Fujibara Films made this excellent drone video of a well known volcano on Japan's Kyushu Island, the third-largest of the archipelago by land area and the southernmost of the four main islands. Kiamondake Volcano is located near the city of Ibusuki on the southern part of the island in the Kagoshima Prefecture. The mountain has a peak elevation of just under 925 meters (a bit over 3k ft.) above sea level. While the volcano isn't considered extinct, its last eruption was over 1,000 year ago, in 885 AD.

From Osaka where I was staying it took me a long 12 hours to get here. I was under time constraint so I worked hard and it took me 1 hour and 25 mins to summit, beating the average of 2.5 hours. I spent a few hours up there and it was all worth the effort!
