Lake Kawaguchi Maple Corridor, 河口湖紅葉迴廊
Lake Kawaguchi Maple Corridor is a picturesque spot near Mount Fuji, known for its stunning maple trees that turn fiery red in November. The area hosts the Kawaguchiko Autumn Leaves Festival, where the illuminated leaves create a magical nighttime display. While it can get crowded during peak foliage season, venturing further out offers a quieter experience to admire the vibrant colors of the maple leaves. This destination is perfect for nature enthusiasts and photographers seeking beautiful autumn landscapes.
One of the most popular spots to see red leaves in Japan is the Maples Corridor or “Momiji Kairou” at Lake Kawaguchi. Momiji means red leaves and a “Momiji Matsuri” festival is held every year from the end of October to mid November with road stalls and romantic night illumination from sunset until 10pm, so it is a popular destination during November for people to see both Mount Fuji and red leaves.
