From the end of September, Hokkaido (Japan) begins to enter the most beautiful season of the year. Visitors coming here during this season will be "fascinated" by the colorful skies, the roads, and the rows of trees changing leaves as beautiful as a watercolor painting.
In autumn, Hokkaido is as charming as a beautiful girl. Coming here, visitors will admire the extremely romantic scenery with the whole area covered in beautiful yellow and red leaves.
Small roads lined with maple trees changing leaves become a "specialty" of autumn in Hokkaido.

Returning from a trip to Japan, travel blogger Ngo Tran Hai An will suggest you must-see destinations if you want to fully enjoy Hokkaido's autumn.
Daisetsuzan National Park
In Hokkaido, the mountains of Daisetsuzan National Park are the first to see the changing colors of autumn each year, and this is when many tourists flock to the area to admire the beautiful natural scenery.
Northern Horse Park (Misawa Road, Tomakomai)
This is a regular venue for horse shows and has a Japanese-style hockey field amidst maple trees. The roads leading into Northern Horse Park are still lined with maple trees for miles.
The yellow leaves falling to the ground create a beautiful autumn carpet.
Visitors can enjoy the changing natural scenery here throughout the year, but the red leaves are still one of the most breathtaking beauties.
Small forest next to Hilton Niseko hotel
Nearby is a small lake that reflects the beautiful scenery on the lake surface. This is also a beautiful view of the Yotei volcano. In autumn, the beauty of this place is even more special when the orange, red, and yellow colors are reflected on the blue background of the lake surface.
In addition to sightseeing walks, visitors can also participate in outdoor activities such as mountain climbing, canoeing on the river, cycling...
