The most HIDDEN gem of the autumn season

Are you looking for a quiet, peaceful spot to enjoy autumn leaves? Where there is a nice clear river reflecting the pretty colors, birds are singing and not too crowded with people? We have the perfect place for you. It’s called Kuroson Gorge!

This place might be one of the best-hidden autumn foliage spots in Japan, as it is about a 4-hour drive away from Kochi City. But we bet you that you will have the most relaxing time in the forest, glowing in the soft pink light shining through vivid red maple leaves

Be sure to visit Kuroson Shrine as well to see the massive 500-year-old Japanese cedar tree

About 2 hours drive from Shimantocho-Chuo IC on Kochi Expressway
