Hiuchiyama is the highest peak of the Kubiki Sanzan mountains, located in Myoko-Togakushi Renzan National Park. The marshland creates a unique landscape, making for a one-of-a-kind hike. The three main attractions on Hiuchiyama are Takaya Pond, Tengu Garden, and the summit. They are all wonderful and it is difficult to choose a favorite. Although it is a tough process that involves climbing, the scenery is well worth it. August: From Takaya Pond on the hiking trail...

The snow has finally started to melt in Hakuba Village, and the beautiful flower season is upon us. Plants sprout here and there, coloring the marshland. It's the best time for people interested in marshland plants! There are still few signs of animals, but the trees are not overgrown, so it's an easy time to observe wild birds. There are few people around, so you can take your time taking photos.

Wetlands have a variety of attractions. Each region has its own unique environment. They are places where you can encounter rare plants and animals, enjoy beautiful scenery, and sometimes catch a glimpse of the harshness of nature. It is difficult to choose a favorite among the wetlands, so I hope you will explore each one on foot! However, there is no way you will have the time to do so...
