Information about Mt.Akadake
Now is good time to see Autumn leaves.
But at the summit it snowed for the first time in this year.
Unfortunately a hiker died for hypothermia.

When climbing, be careful the weather.

This season the weather is unstable, sometimes winter, sometimes autumn.

Autumn leaves information about Kougen Onsen Numameguri
Now Numameguri course is really beautiful.

Numameguri course Open 7:00 am
Hikers have to enter this course until 1:00 pm and have to come back until 3:00 pm.
Yesterday we saw some people entered at the last moment and ran the trail.

This trail is narrow, when passing each other, it’s dangerous.
If hikers injure, an ambulance can’t come fast because the road is not good.
So take your enough time to go.
