This period offers the most impressive snow corridor, with walls often reaching over ten metres high, particularly along the road leading to Murodo Terminal. This experience is particularly popular with couples and families looking for a truly memorable and scenic adventure.If you prefer hiking and enjoying the alpine flora, late July to mid-September is perfect. The snow has largely melted, revealing vibrant alpine meadows and making the numerous hiking trails around Murodo accessible. This is an excellent time for solo travellers or couples who appreciate exploring nature on foot, with paths leading to tranquil spots like Mikurigaike Pond and the active volcanic area of Jigokudani.Autumn, from late September to early November, offers spectacular koyo (autumn foliage). The mountainsides transform into a tapestry of red, orange, and gold.
