Fuji-Kawaguchiko Fall Leaves Festival

The Fuji-Kawaguchiko Fall Leaves Festival is an annual autumn celebration taking place along the northern shore of Lake Kawaguchiko, with views of Mount Fuji and the surrounding mountains.

The festival’s main attraction is the Momiji Corridor, a scenic walking path along a small river lined with mature Japanese maple trees. In autumn, their leaves turn brilliant shades of red, orange, and gold, forming a colorful canopy.

After sunset, the trees are illuminated, transforming the corridor into a spectacular nighttime autumn landscape.

Visitors can also explore a seasonal craft market, sample local Japanese food, browse regional souvenirs, and photograph the autumn foliage around the lake.

The festival is especially popular with photographers, families, couples, and visitors interested in Japan’s seasonal scenery.
