Highlights

  • Ginzan Onsen, with its retro scenery that makes you feel like you've traveled back in time, is a place where wooden hot spring inns line both sides of the Ginzan River. - Let's take a stroll through the streets and immerse ourselves in the atmosphere.
  • Naruko Gorge, spanning approximately 2.5km, is renowned as one of the top autumn foliage destinations in Tohoku, with towering cliffs reaching a height of about 100m.

・Ginzan Onsen, known as one of the finest hot springs in Yamagata Prefecture, is a charming hot spring town adorned with retro-style inns that were built during the Taisho and Showa periods. The town exudes a nostalgic atmosphere that is sure to captivate visitors.
・During late October to early November, the vibrant autumn foliage blends perfectly with the retro hot spring town, creating a nostalgic and enchanting atmosphere. The combination of colorful leaves and the old-fashioned charm of the hot spring town truly brings forth a nostalgic and captivating ambiance.
・You can enjoy a delightful autumn leaf viewing experience while being soothed by the grand waterfalls and the gentle murmuring of the streams. As you immerse yourself in the picturesque scenery, you'll witness the foliage at its peak, providing a stunning backdrop for your leaf-peeping adventure.
・Naruko Gorge is a place where the ever-changing canyon is beautifully adorned with vibrant autumn foliage. Trees such as Japanese maples, maple trees, oak trees, and acer palmatum thrive, covering the sharply towering white cliffs. Peculiar and mysterious rock formations stand tall in various spots, adding to the enchanting scenery when combined with the autumn-colored trees, resembling a painting. The prime spot for capturing the most breathtaking views is the observation deck at Naruko Gorge Rest House. From there, you can admire the lustrous V-shaped valley gorge, adorned with shades of red and yellow. It's a mesmerizing sight that showcases the beauty of nature's artistry.
