Karuizawa autumn leaves information

Regarding autumn leaves

Autumn leaves in Karuizawa

When it comes to autumn leaves in Karuizawa, Unma Pond is most famous, but that's not all.
You can see beautiful autumn leaves everywhere in Karuizawa.
The gradation at the beginning of the autumn leaves is also very beautiful. During the peak season, there are places where the area is dyed bright red.
Even after the red and yellow leaves of the broad-leaved trees have finished, you can still see the golden autumn leaves of the larch trees that are unique to Karuizawa.
The autumn leaves also look different every year. What will the autumn leaves look like this year?
It is said that beautiful autumn leaves require a difference in temperature and moisture, and Karuizawa satisfies both of these requirements.
During the autumn leaves season, there are some cold mornings and evenings, so it may be a good idea to bring an extra layer of clothing.
Ask the pensioner to tell you about the recommended autumn foliage spots!

I will take note of the progress of autumn leaves in recent years so that I can plan the timing accordingly.

Autumn leaves in 2024

The leaves don't turn out beautifully without a lot of rain, and this year there was a lot of rain in the latter half of the summer.
9/11 Some of the leaves are starting to change color a little, but it doesn't feel like autumn leaves yet.

10/08 The rain has not yet completely changed the color of Kumoba Pond.
This year may be a little slower than last year.

10/16 The color is starting to come out a little.
It's a bit crowded with tourists.
The bus service to Kumobaike has already started.

10/21 The lowest temperatures in Karuizawa last weekend were 2.7℃ and 2.6℃, causing the leaves to change color rapidly.
The gradations of autumn leaves are beautiful right now.
Starting this week, parking will be prohibited around Kumoba Pond.
We recommend walking, taking a taxi, cycling, or taking the Kumobaike bus.
The manager approached to take a photo, but there was no place to stop.
If I have time, I'll go there later by bike.

10/22 Today's Kumoba Pond.
It might be a little slower than last year.
10/27 The leaves in Kitakaruizawa look like they are turning colors nicely.

10/28 It's raining and it's starting to look pretty good.
The leaves haven't completely turned red yet, but it looks nice.
The gradation is also beautiful.
The larch trees are also starting to turn a little color.

10/30 It's raining and it's looking even better.
There are some areas that are bright red, but overall it's a bit of a hassle, but I don't think it will be too bad this weekend!
When the wind blows, the leaves fall like rain.
11/5 We were blessed with sunny weather during the second half of the holiday and the autumn leaves were beautiful.
There are still some green leaves and we're looking forward to the larch trees turning red, so we can enjoy it this weekend as well.
11/7 The first snow has fallen on Mt. Asama, and temperatures are forecast to be below freezing tomorrow morning. The autumn leaves are becoming more and more beautiful.

11/8 This morning the temperature dropped to -0.4℃, and the leaves have changed color even more.
I think this weekend will be better than last weekend. Even after the red leaves have fallen, the larch trees will still be changing color, so I think we'll be able to enjoy the autumn leaves for a while longer, including next weekend.
11/11 Still beautiful. It looks like it will be okay this weekend too.

11/12 Still beautiful.
The larch trees are starting to turn a beautiful color, so you can enjoy the autumn leaves this weekend as well.
This year's leaves are changing color more than a week later than usual, and the period during which they change color is longer than last year.
However, it may be difficult to see the bright red autumn leaves that we were hoping for this year.
Maybe it's not cold enough.

11/14 Kumoba Pond didn't reach its peak yet, but rather seemed to have just passed its peak.
The leaves on the right side (east) have started to fall, but the leaves on the left (west) are just about to reach their peak.
This weekend is fine too.
More importantly, the street trees along R18 and other areas usually turn red earlier than the others, but they are now at their peak.
You can also enjoy the autumn leaves of the larch trees at the same time.

Autumn leaves in 2023

Kumoba Pond is very popular for autumn leaves in Karuizawa, but there is no parking nearby, so I mainly went there on foot or by bicycle.
If you take the bus, it's the east/south course, but the bus stop is ``Roppontsuji/Kumobaike'', so you'll have to walk a little bit.
In addition to this bus, this year, Karuizawa A test run of the round-trip shuttle bus between the station and Roppontsuji/Kumoba Pond will be carried out.
It's okay to walk a little bit.

9/20 It looks like the leaves will turn early this year.
Some leaves are already starting to change color and some are starting to fall.

10/3 This week, the minimum temperature continues to be below 10℃.
It looks like the leaves are going to turn autumn all at once.

10/13 The leaves haven't turned that much yet, but I took some photos at Kumoba Pond to get an idea of the extent.

10/23 I think this weekend is probably the best time to see the autumn leaves.
This year's leaves are already turning red, but so far they are more yellow than red.
The larch is also starting to change color a little.

10/24 The color has changed considerably.
Overall, I think this weekend is the best time to see them, but this year's fall foliage may not be as good.

10/27 I just said that this year's autumn leaves were not good, but I'm retracting my previous statement.
Normally, you can see the gradation, bright red, and larch leaves in sequence, but this year you can see all the autumn leaves at once.
Warm water may help.
When it rains, a lot of leaves fall off, but there is no forecast for that.
I think we will be able to see beautiful autumn leaves this weekend!

The autumn leaves are starting to change color all at once.

Although it was a weekday, there were quite a lot of tourists.
On the morning of October 20th, it was already below freezing!

10/26 Mt. Asama is covered with snow.

I went to Kumoba Pond on October 27th as well.
There are still tourists, but it's not as crowded.
I also saw a rickshaw for the first time in a while.
There are many leaves this year that have fallen before they change color, so I wonder if this year's autumn leaves will be a little less red?
It still takes some time for the peak season to reach its peak, but the larch leaves are starting to turn red this year.

11/1 It rained, and the colors of the autumn leaves seem to have deepened.
11/2 Kumoba Pond was crowded. Maybe it's because NHK News told me that it's the best time to see them.
This year, the leaves of the larch turn early.

It's November 4th.

10/18 Kumoba Pond is still at this level.
However, it's cold this week, so it might move forward quickly.

10/25 Due to the cold and rain since last weekend, the colors have started to change all at once.
It's a little early for the peak season, but I think it'll be pretty pretty this weekend as well.

10/23 It has been cold this week, and the leaves have changed quite a bit.
I think this weekend will be good for the first bright autumn leaves.
Next week we will see ripe autumn leaves, and from the beginning of November we will be able to see the golden autumn leaves of larch pine.
The minimum temperature forecast for the weekend is 1 or 2 degrees Celsius, so it might even drop below freezing.
Please take measures against the cold before going out.

10/28 This weekend is the best I think.
Beautiful.
On Saturday, the lowest temperature is forecast to be -2℃ (next Wednesday, it is forecast to be -3℃).
It's cold anyway, so please take precautions against the cold when you go out.
It doesn't look like it's going to rain for a while, so I think it's OK to use summer tires during the day.

2019 Situation

2019/10/21 It was warm this year (though there were some cold days), and the autumn leaves were delayed, but last week's typhoon No. 19 caused the leaves to change color all at once.
Kumoba Pond and other places are starting to turn red, and it feels like autumn leaves are here, but I wonder if the whole of Karuizawa will turn red from this weekend?
The photo is Kumoba Pond on October 22, 2019.

2019/11/1 It's starting to look pretty good. I think this weekend will be the best time to see them.
Some trees turn brown and drop their leaves before turning red, but they are generally in good condition.
The autumn leaves of the larch pine have not yet turned. It was slightly yellowish-green.
The temperature has dropped to 3℃ this morning, so I think things will accelerate from now on, but it will be cold, so please prepare for the cold.
