The Japanese Alps, which comprise the Northern and Southern ranges, were formed during the Late Jurassic to Early Cretaceous periods, approximately 150 million years ago. Their current geological features were shaped significantly by tectonic activity and erosion over millions of years. As a result, while the mountains themselves are ancient, the specific topography we see today has been influenced by more recent geological processes.
