Fall foliage Japan abounds in maples, ginkgoes and other deciduous trees that dazzle us with fiery colors from October to December. The mountains and valleys offer endless sceneries of beautiful fall foliage. I went to Yatsugatake this weekend. The Yatsugatake area offers beautiful nature, an abundance of foliage. Bordering Nagano and Yamanashi prefectures, the Yatsugatake region is located in the middle of the Japanese Alps. The most popular mountains to climb are Akadake, Yatsugatake’s highest peak at 2,899 meters, Yokodake, the second highest at 2,829 meters and Ioudake at 2,760 meters. Many climbers make the trek from peak to peak. Of course, there are plenty of less challenging trails along the base where one can enjoy the splendor of the fall foliage.
