Mt. Katsuragi Natural Azalea Park Popular Reviews
Mt. Katsuragi is famous for azalea and called as 'one million azaleas in one glance'. They're all volunteer azaleas! The mountain colored in red is like an amazing red carpet! 'Cause there're many benches, it's nice for you to bring lunches and enjoy amazing hiking!◎The best season is the middle of May. In 2018, it'll be a little earlier. You can use the ropeway to the mountain top, or walk 1.5-2 hours to climb. During the azalea season, the ropeway gets crowded with many people, so you need to get there earlier. Check the ropeway extra service in HP.
