Autumn Leaves in Tohoku
Looking for the best spots to see the leaves in Tohoku this fall?
Autumn in Tohoku typically starts in late September with the fall foliage season, and there are plenty of ways to enjoy the incredible scenery. The Hakkoda Ropeway, Hachimantai Aspite Line, Zao Ropeway, Funa Hara, and Geibikei Boat Ride are all great choices that will give you stunning views of the autumnal colors in Aomori, Hachimantai, Yamagata, Shizukuishi, and Ichinoseki.
Trees in the region change colors gradually from north to south, so the best time to view them varies. For example, early October is best for Aomori, while late November is best for Fukushima.
