Hello everyone.
I am Japanese, please call me Hiro.
On October 21, 2022, I went to Kamikochi to see the autumn leaves.
Kamikochi is a very popular hiking destination in Japan.
In Kamikochi, there are three main attractions: Taisho Pond, Kappa Bridge, and Myojin Pond.
You can stay at a hotel in Kamikochi, such as the Kamikochi Imperial Hotel, or in a nearby city like Matsumoto in Nagano Prefecture.
There is a direct bus service from Tokyo.

Very beautiful Kamikochi! I'll visit here in October this year 🙏
I prefer public transport from Matsumoto to Kamikochi by train to Shin-Shimashima Station and transfer to a bus. I like the local train atmosphere.
The townscape is very atmospheric and wonderful!
Great video, thank you.
Is there any hiking boots rental shop at the start of the trail?
Thank you for your comment. Sorry for the delay in replying.
I checked and there may not be any climbing equipment available for rent in Kamikochi.
If you walk between Taisho Pond and Myojin Pond shown in this video, walking shoes are sufficient as the path is not mountain climbing but hiking.
If it rains, you can probably buy shoe covers at THE PARKLODGE KAMIKOCHI near Kappa Bridge.

@@japantravelguidetrakite Thank you very much for trying to get the information. I went to Kamikochi on 1 November 2023, however due to my foot injury before leaving for Japan, I coild not walk the trail from Taisho Pond to Kappa Bashi. But I could see that the trail nearby Kappa Bashi is easy to walk on with plain sports shoes.
Thanks a lot for sharing your experience. We are also planning for day trip from Tokyo as accommodations are not available. Should we make reservations For the bus from sawarno parking to Kamikochi and Kamikochi to kappa bridge and return to Sawarno parking.
Thanks for watching.
You say you were unable to book a hotel, when are you planning to go to Kamikochi?
Kamikochi is open from the end of April to mid-November.
We recently received an inquiry from someone who wanted to go to Kamikochi in November but could not book a bus.
Hi again, how cold is it in Kamikochi at mid-October?
I want to go to Kamikochi in mid October 2023. Does the leaves already start to turn yellow?
Thank you for your comment.
Sorry for the delay in responding.
The fall foliage in Kamikochi usually starts in mid-October.
I took this video on October 21, which was right around the time of the autumn leaves.
Hello wanna ask! I will visiting kamikochi in mid november. But the reservation for bus is already sold out! If I wanna go from matsumoto to kamikochi by train. Should I making the reservation for the ticket?
It would be appreciated if you could help me🙏🏻
Hi, thanks for watching the video.
Generally, Kamikochi can only be visited from spring to fall.
Only serious climbers go there in winter.
I think you can't book a bus because the mountain is already closed in mid-November.

I'm curious, how long do you need to explore Kamikochi? I'm afraid I'm doing it as a day trip only
It is not easy to enjoy a day trip from Tokyo to Kamikochi.
There is a direct bus connection from Tokyo to Kamikochi, so if you leave Tokyo early in the morning and take a bus from Kamikochi back to Tokyo in the evening, it would be possible to make a day trip.
However, the long bus ride will be tiring and the time spent in Kamikochi will not be long.
In my case, I leave Tokyo early in the morning, take a train and a bus to Kamikochi, spend 5-6 hours in Kamikochi, and then take a train and a bus back to Tokyo again, which is quite tiring.
If possible, it would be better to spend one night in Kamikochi or in Matsumoto, a town near Kamikochi.
@@japantravelguidetrakite thaaanks! Im coming from Matsumoto
Hope you have a great trip with good weather.
What time did you start the trip at Kamikochi?
Sorry for the late reply. I arrived at Kamikochi at 11:45 am. It would be a very hard schedule to make a day trip to Kamikochi from Tokyo. It would be better to stay overnight in Kamikochi or in Matsumoto in Nagano Prefecture.
Thanks for a great video!
Is Takayama also a good town to stay in when visiting Kamikochi? Or is it too far? Are 4 days too long time to visit Kamikochi?@@japantravelguidetrakite
it takes only 5:30 hours to go.. Definitely NOT a DAY trip.
Yes, you are right, a day trip from Tokyo to Kamikochi is a very hard schedule. It would be better to stay overnight in Kamikochi or in Matsumoto in Nagano Prefecture.
Unnecessary soundtrack, all unrelated to the scenes. Very annoying....
Thanks for the feedback.
