Since being in Japan I have learnt an appreciation for hiking and incredible scenery.
Nishizawa Gorge in Yamanashi Prefecture, about 150km drive from downtown Tokyo has to be my best find yet. I have experienced Nishizawa in the Winter, Summer and Fall.
Nishizawa is known for the beautiful waterfalls that cascade through the gorge, with wonderful backdrop of Autumn leaves in October & November.
Here are some photos from my fall hike in November 2016. I will post in subsequent post the snow frozen winter waterfalls from my winter hike.
