The autumn foliage season in Mie Prefecture begins at Mt. Gozaisho

The autumn leaves on Mt. Gozaisho, which is 1,212 meters above sea level, change color gradually over the course of about a month from mid-October onwards, moving from the summit, to the middle slopes, and to the hot spring town.

First, the trees near the top of the mountain, which can be seen from the ropeway, begin to change color, and the contrast between the majestic rock formations such as Daikokuiwa and Byobuiwa near the top of the mountain and the autumn leaves is at its best. The azalea trees also change to a beautiful red color.

Recommended! A spectacular view of autumn leaves from the Gozaisho Ropeway

You can enjoy the autumn leaves at Mt. Gozaisho by taking the ropeway. It's a 12-minute aerial journey from the ropeway base station to the summit station. You can go straight to the top of the mountain on the ropeway without having to use the mountain trail!

The leaves change color gradually from the top of the mountain to the middle of the mountain, so you can enjoy a different view every time you visit.

The red of the azalea, the yellow of the camphor trees, and the green of the conifers gradually create a colorful scene from the mountaintop to the hot spring town at the foot of the mountain.

You can even take a day trip from Osaka or Nagoya! Here's how to get there
