About this event
Ichikawa City will hold the "Autumn Foliage Viewing Event" at Momijiyama in Omachi Park from Saturday, November 21 to Sunday, December 6, 2026. An area normally closed for nature conservation will be opened to the public, allowing visitors to stroll freely and enjoy the autumn leaves during this period. There are about 500 Japanese maple trees (Iroha momiji) in the park, with the best viewing period usually from late November to early December. Momijiyama is not a paved garden, but a mountain trail with stairs, steep slopes, and tree roots, so shoes and clothing suitable for light mountain walking or hiking are recommended. Opening hours are from 9:00 to 17:00, but because sunlight disappears and it becomes dark and cold by 16:00 after mid-November, it is important to plan your stroll with plenty of time during daylight hours. The walking time is estimated to be around 1 hour, but travel time and rest breaks should also be taken into account. Gathering plants or capturing animals is strictly prohibited, and visitors are asked to understand that this is a temporary opening for nature conservation. Admission to the Nature Observation Garden and Rose Garden is free, but separate fees apply when using the zoo. Access by public transport is via Keisei Bus bound for "Omachi Station" getting off at "Komagata" on weekdays, or bound for "Doshokubutsuen" getting off at "Doshokubutsuen" on weekends and holidays. For cars, paid private parking next to the zoo entrance is available. There is no application form or reservation information on the event page, and it is open for free walking.
