[2025 Tamura Attraction] Travel Guide for Abukuma Caves (Updated May)

As far as I could find, there were no buses from the JR station a few kilometers away, so it may be difficult to access Abukuma Cave without a car or tour bus. Also, as written on the official website, even the normal course is unstable and has quite a few ups and downs, so I highly recommend wearing comfortable sneakers and going only when your legs are in perfect condition! Still, the magnificent space where you can experience the feeling of exploring is a must-see! I went there in the middle of winter, but the temperature inside the cave is constant all year round and the humidity is high, so it was a different world from the outside, so I ended up wearing short sleeves while climbing and descending the stairs. Also, my glasses fogged up! I personally recommend contact lenses to enjoy the spectacular view. Also, I think it's absolutely necessary to wipe the lens of your camera if you take photos. At first I thought Abukuma Cave was a natural monument, but to be precise, the designated course was the "Irimizu Cave" which is a course at a slightly distant entrance. This course seems to be quite a serious cave exploration, as you have to change clothes and be accompanied by a guide at the back. I went there late at night, so they had already stopped accepting reservations. In addition to the course open to the public, the cave is very long and there seem to be undiscovered areas that have not yet been fully explored, making it a place where you can feel the romance of limestone caves. So, I was able to add Fukushima Prefecture to my record of traveling around the country. #trip2022 #AbukumaCave #LimestoneCave #Fukushima

From Koriyama Station, it's a 45-minute train ride to Kamata Station, and from there you can take a taxi or walk to Abukuma Cave. It's a pretty big limestone cave. Maybe it was because it was a rainy day or because of the COVID-19 pandemic, but we had the place almost to ourselves to explore. But it might be a little scary to explore alone. There were also some bats flying around and they got pretty close. If you're lucky, you can see them on the road before entering the cave. The fare is 1200 yen, and the exploration course costs an additional 200 yen. If you buy a ticket online, you can get a 200 yen discount. If you take a taxi to Abukuma Cave, you'll get a coupon that looks like a 200 yen discount for a gift. The gift was an Orion-chan magnet and sticky note. #AbukumaCave #Exploration #LimestoneCave #Cave #Outdoor

#springitinerary you're up for something totally different this spring, Abukuma Cave in Fukushima is a super fun underground adventure. It’s not your usual cherry blossoms and sunny hikes, this spot takes you deep into a limestone cave full of wild rock formations and mysterious vibes. The inside stays around 15°C all year, which feels amazing when it’s starting to warm up outside. The main walking path is super chill and well-lit, but if you’re feeling bold, there’s an extra discovery course where you can crawl through tighter spaces, just wear clothes you don’t mind getting a little dusty. Outside the cave, spring flowers start popping up, so you still get those seasonal vibes before or after your underground trek. It’s weird, cool, and a nice break from the typical spring spots. Plus, it’s got that kind of hidden gem energy you’ll be bragging about later.

#springwander Various stalactites are connected over a total length of 600 metres, and are characterised by the large number of their types and numbers. There are many things to see in the cave, such as the fantastic "Moon World", which introduced a dimming system for stage production for the first time in a stalactite cave in Japan, and the "Dragon Palace", a hall about 13 metres high where unique stalactites are gathered. At "Takine Goten", the largest hall in Abukuma Cave, which is 29 metres high, you can enjoy up close the precious stalactites that can only be seen here, such as crystal curtains and cave corals.

#AutumnTrip #trip2022 #Fukushima #AbukumaCave I went to Abukuma Cave in Fukushima Prefecture, where you can enjoy autumn leaves and one of the largest limestone caves in Japan. The limestone cave, created by nature over a long period of time, is very moving. The ground is wet, so I recommend wearing shoes that you don't mind getting dirty, and there are steep stairs, so I recommend wearing comfortable clothes.
