Sounkyo gorge

Now autumn leaves is the best time to see.
Red leaves and yellow leaves are amazing.
And from now it will be more vivid.

But we are worried about this weekend weather and temperature.

We found ‘Sutcheon’ which tells of the winter’s visit.
Soon it might snow around here.
Depends on weather we will see autumn leaves until next week

Walk with long rain boots and gaiters.
Don’t step on plants to avoid puddles.
Please walk on the trail.
