Mount Rausu (羅臼岳, Rausu-dake) is a stratovolcano on the Shiretoko Peninsula in Hokkaidō, Japan. It sits on the border between the towns of Shari and Rausu. Mount Rausu is the northeasternmost Holocene volcano on Hokkaidō.[2] It is one of the 100 famous mountains in Japan.

Mount Rausu's opening festival is held annually on July 3. This day officially opens the climbing season.[3]

In the past 2,200 years Mount Rausu is believed to have erupted thrice, with a Plinian Eruption roughly 1,400 years ago and a pyroclastic flow about 500 years ago.[4]
