Every fall, the rowan and maple trees turn red and yellow, and due to their beauty, they are also called the “carpet of the gods.”
According to the Tourism and Local Products Association in Kurihara City, Miyagi Prefecture, due to the hot summer this year, the colors began to change in late September, about a week to 10 days later than usual, and now the mountain peaks from 1,000 meters above sea level are starting to change color. The best time to see them is now.
On the 8th, the middle day of a three-day weekend, the area near the summit was sometimes covered in clouds, but the area from Iwakagami-daira, the trailhead, to the summit was crowded with many climbers.
The visitors enjoyed themselves by leisurely climbing the mountain and taking photos while admiring the vividly colored autumn leaves.
Many climbers gathered at the observation deck at the top of the mountain, where they could be seen looking at the scenery below through the gaps in the clouds.
