Chūgoku Mountains is a mountain range in the Chūgoku region of western Japan. It runs in an east–west direction and stretches approximately 500 km from Hyōgo Prefecture in the east to the coast of Yamaguchi Prefecture. The range also reaches under the Pacific Ocean.

The two tallest mountains in the group are Daisen and Mount Hyōno, which are 1,729 m and 1,510 m , respectively. Many other mountains in the ranger are also over 1,000 m , while some of the smaller mountains are less than 500 m. Granite is the most common stone found among the mountains, much of which has been exposed through erosion.
