The ideal time to visit Kanmangafuchi Abyss, a stunning gorge created by an eruption of nearby Mount Nantai, is during the months of April to May for the spring bloom and October to November for the autumn foliage. During spring, the cherry blossoms near the abyss bloom spectacularly, creating a picturesque scene complemented by the gentle flow of the Daiya River. The pleasant temperature in spring ranges from 11°C to 17°C, making it comfortable for visitors to enjoy long walks along the historical 'Bake Jizo' stone statues and the tranquil natural surroundings.
In contrast, autumn presents a canvas of rich, warm hues as the maple and ginkgo trees transform into vibrant shades of red, orange, and yellow. The cooler temperatures in autumn, typically between 8°C and 17°C, provide a refreshing atmosphere for exploring. The natural beauty during this season is exceptionally photogenic, attracting both nature enthusiasts and photographers alike. To avoid the busiest times, tourists should consider visiting on weekdays or early in the morning to fully appreciate the serenity of the gorge without the crowds.
