About the event

Choose a trail suited to your group and leave enough daylight for the return. The opening fire ceremony takes place at the plaza in front of Kiyotaki Station on 24 October. Autumn colour typically develops from mid-November into early December, but timing varies with the weather. This date range does not mean performances run every day.
