Autumn Foliage of Gokanosho

About this event

The autumn foliage season arrives across the entire Gokanosho area in Izumi-machi, Yatsushiro City, Kumamoto Prefecture, where you can enjoy breathtaking autumn views. In particular, around Sendan-todoroki Falls, you can appreciate a magnificent collaboration between the 70-meter-high waterfall selected among Japan's Top 100 Waterfalls and autumn foliage such as Japanese maples and maples. In addition, from Umenoki-todoroki Park Suspension Bridge, a commanding view of the bridge spanning the ravine and the colorful autumn leaves spreads out. In the Momiki area, you can feel the canyon's autumn leaves up close from two suspension bridges called Ayatori Bridge and Shakunage Bridge. Peak viewing usually arrives from early November to mid-November, as zelkova, maple, beech, and Enkianthus perulatus turn red and yellow to enchant visitors. Why not fully enjoy the rich nature and beautiful autumn foliage of Gokanosho during this period, which is also ideal for driving?
