The Rokko Mountain Range stretches approximately 30 km east to west, adjacent to the urban areas of the Hanshin region, including Kobe city. Most of the mountains are composed of granite, which was formed about 70 million years ago. The present topography is believed to have been formed by repeated tectonic movements. During the Meiji Era (1868-1912), this lush green mountain was logged and turned
into a barren mountain, resulting in increased river flooding. Later, laws such as the River Law, the Erosion Control Law, and the Forest Law were established, and the greening of the area has progressed to the present day. (References: Kobe City HP and the Kobe Nature Series 21)
