📍Hanakanuki Valley In Ono, Takahagi City, Ibaraki Prefecture Access: 44 minutes on foot from Wano Iriguchi bus stop/Ibaraki Kotsu ✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲ Famous spots for autumn leaves in Ibaraki From Kotakizawa Campsite along the valley, the view near Shiomitaki Suspension Bridge is spectacular Shiomitaki Suspension Bridge is about 60m long The branches of the trees growing along the river jut out from both sides to form a gorgeous green tunnel. I was soothed by the murmuring of the Hananuki River and the green maples shining in the sunlight. The parking lot isn't very large, so I think it will be very crowded during the autumn foliage season. #Ibaraki #Kitaibaraki #Hanakanuki Valley #Green Maple #Autumn Leaves #0 Yen Trip

#cherryblossom25 Hananuki Valley is a total hidden gem. It’s not one of those polished parks — it’s wild, raw, and ridiculously scenic. Picture this: a suspension bridge dangling over a lush river gorge, with cherry trees blooming along the banks and mist rising between the cliffs. I went early in the morning, and there were only a few hikers around. The trail is peaceful, with little wooden footbridges and moss-covered rocks lining the way. I took one of my favorite #cherryblossom25 photos from the red bridge — pink petals, deep green forest, and that foggy mountain air that just hits different. It’s great for solo travelers or couples looking to slow down and breathe. Bring hiking shoes and snacks, and get ready for a sakura experience that feels untouched.
