2019.8.4 Hachimantai - Iwate's proud rich marshland -

I took a walk around Hachimantai on August 4, 2019.

In contrast to the harsh winters, the summers are full of vibrant life.

A divine green glows beneath the blue sky.

▼Let's start exploring right away!

▼The road to Akita. It looks like it would be a pleasant drive through it.

▼Hachimantai is an alpine marshland that spreads around the 1,613m summit.

You can drive almost all the way to the top of the mountain.

Therefore, there are many low coniferous trees right from the starting point.

▼The scenery also had a Takayama atmosphere.

▼After walking a little, you will come to a boardwalk and the marshland will begin.

▼There was a frog.

It seems to be a Japanese red frog.

▼The views become more expansive.

In fact, it's sticky.

▼A pond has also appeared.

▼The Japanese lily is in full bloom.

▼Yahata Pond comes into view.
