Autumn Foliage: Keisoku-ji and Shakudo-ji Temples

About this event

Nestled in the mountains of Furuhashi, Kinomoto-cho, Nagahama City, Shiga Prefecture, Keisoku-ji and Shakudo-ji Temples are renowned autumn foliage spots representing the Kohoku region. During the autumn foliage season, the executive committee of the local Furuhashi and Shakudo districts opens temporary parking lots and collects an autumn foliage stroll cooperation fee. Visitors can tour the two temples located in this mountain village on foot while admiring the Japanese maples. As it is a bit of a distance from the station by bus and walking, it is recommended for those who want to take their time walking through Kohoku in autumn. Reservations are not required for individual visitors, but reservations are necessary for groups arriving by chartered bus. The autumn foliage stroll cooperation fee is 500 yen (free for junior high school students and younger). For groups, the fee is 6,000 yen for up to 15 people (prepaid), and 400 yen per additional person from the 16th person onward. Temporary parking will be directed first to Autumn Foliage Parking Lot 1, and when full, vehicles will be guided to Autumn Foliage Parking Lot 2.
