Hidden Gems in Aomori! A Stunning 14km Hiking Guide to the Oirase Stream 🚶‍♀

#September Destinations 2025 A Must-Visit Gem in Tohoku, Japan ✨ The Oirase River along Lake Towada is definitely the biggest surprise I discovered this year 💫 🚶♀️【Recommended Hiking Route】 The 8.9km route from Ishido to Konokuchi is amazing, with over a dozen waterfalls and uniquely shaped rocks along the way. I recommend allowing 3 hours for hiking and taking photos (you can take a bus back if you get tired 🚌). 🌈【Must-Visit Spots】 ✔ "Sanran no Nagare" (Three-Ran Stream): A spectacular rushing stream ✔ "Kujukushima" (Narrow Rock Islands): Dense rock formations ✔ "Choshi Great Falls": The most spectacular waterfall in the Lake Towada area 📌【Useful Information】 📍Address: Oirase River, Towada City, Aomori Prefecture ⏰Opening Hours: Open year-round 🎫Admission: Free! 🚌Transportation: Approximately 2 hours by bus from JR Aomori Station 💡【Tips】 ✅Wearing non-slip hiking shoes is essential. ✅There are rest stops along the way, but it's recommended to bring your own snacks. This beautiful paradise is a must-visit! #AomoriTourism #AomoriTravel #AomoriSelfGuidedTrip #AomoriAttractions

If you’re craving that jaw-dropping autumn vibe, add Aomori to the top of your fall bucket list ASAP! The autumn colors here are absolutely next level — think red, orange, and yellow leaves lighting up the forests, valleys, and mountains like something out of a dream. The fiery maple trees around Lake Towada and Oirase Gorge are the real MVPs for leaf peeping. Stroll along the Oirase Gorge hiking trail (located near Towadako, Towada, Aomori, open 24/7) and prepare to be wowed by vibrant foliage and dramatic waterfalls. Or, head up to the Jogakura Ohashi Bridge (Jogakura Ohashi, Kuroishi, Aomori) for panoramic views that look unreal — especially with stunning clouds or a splash of sunshine for that perfect Insta snap. Bonus: In late October, Aomori’s apple orchards (like those near Hirosaki Park, Hirosaki, Aomori; open 9am–5pm) turn extra golden as harvest season kicks in, serving major cozy vibes and fresh local treats. The whole region seriously brings fall adventures to a new level. Come for the colors, stay for the epic nature scenes! 🍎🌄 Whether it’s a crisp sunny day or a rainy afternoon, Aomori in autumn will leave you speechless. And you can check out trip.com for the best deals on hotels and tours. Fall in love with autumn all over again in Aomori — your feed will thank you!#falladventures
