赤芝峡

The Akashiba Gorge extends along the Arakawa River, featuring vertical cliffs, dense forests, and multiple hiking trails through the mountainous terrain.

The natural formation of Akashiba Gorge occurred through centuries of water erosion by the Arakawa River, carving deep passages through the rock formations.

Local residents maintain traditional practices of seasonal forest management around the gorge, preserving native plant species and monitoring wildlife populations.

Visitors can access the gorge via a dedicated parking area that accommodates twenty vehicles, with restroom facilities available during autumn foliage season.

Between late October and early November, Japanese maples, beeches, and mountain cherry trees create a natural display of red and gold colors.
