Aburayama 油山 Spring Hike 2019.3.23
Spring is here! We are in the middle of the short spring time period known as Hanami (Lit. Flower watching). It is a great time of year where the parks and nature areas are filled with blossoming trees and people enjoying the spectacle by having picnics under and amongst the trees. It is also a wonderful time to go hiking as the weather is getting warmer but the humidity is still relatively low this makes it the perfect time to visit and revisit the best hikes.
The first of a few I have been on is to head back to Aburayama. This time we drove to the car park area (Costs 400 Yen for the day payable in cash at the toll gate before entering the mountain). From there we hiked up the mountain and took in the sights under the new seasons conditions. For more info. on visiting Aburayama check out the previous posts for some routes 1 2 3

The changing colour of the trees makes for a wonderful image. The blossoming trees mixed with the greens.

The sakura blossoms in full bloom. Not all of the trees had reached full blossom but the ones that had looked great against the clear blue sky!
