How to Enjoy
Autumn
The fall foliage along the Seseragi Kaido in Gifu Prefecture is one of the region’s most famous attractions.
Along the way, we recommend strolling and sampling local treats at the roadside station Meiho, or taking your time exploring the Meiho Historical and Folklore Museum.
In autumn, Hakusan Shrine festivals are held in various areas. Visitors are welcome to observe, so don’t miss the chance.
*For peak foliage updates, please check the latest information on this website’s news section or official social media.
