What you can expect

  • Discover the UNESCO World Heritage site of Nikko, a spiritual centre surrounded by mountains and forests. Visit the famous Nikko Toshogu Shrine, Shinkyo Bridge, and Kanmangafuchi Abyss. Ride the Akechidaira Ropeway for panoramic views of Mount Nantai, Lake Chuzenji, and Kegon Falls.

    Start your tour with a visit to the Nikko Toshogu Shrine, the most famous shrine in Nikko, dedicated to Tokugawa Ieyasu, the founder of the Tokugawa shogunate. Admire the intricate carvings, vibrant colours, and impressive architecture. Notable features include the Yomeimon Gate, which showcases exquisite craftsmanship, and the famous sleeping cat sculpture. The shrine is set within a serene forest, enhancing its spiritual atmosphere.

    Next, visit the Shinkyo Bridge, a stunning wooden bridge that spans the Daiya River. Recognised as one of Japan’s most beautiful bridges, it is often photographed against the backdrop of lush greenery and autumn foliage. The bridge holds historical significance as a gateway to the Nikko shrines and is a symbol of the area’s spiritual heritage.

    Continue to the Kanmangafuchi Abyss, a picturesque pathway lined with over 70 Jizo statues, representing the spirits of children and travellers. This peaceful walk offers a reflective atmosphere, enhanced by the surrounding nature and the sounds of the nearby river. The path leads to Jiunji Hondo Temple, a small temple that provides a tranquil retreat for visitors.

    Take the Akechidaira Ropeway for breathtaking views of Nikko National Park as it ascends to an observation deck. From the top, enjoy panoramic vistas of Mount Nantai, Lake Chuzenji, and Kegon Falls. The ride itself is a scenic experience, showcasing the stunning natural beauty of the region.

    Visit Lake Chuzenji, a picturesque highland lake formed by volcanic activity, located at the foot of Mount Nantai. Known for its crystal-clear waters and scenic surroundings, the lake offers opportunities for boating, hiking, and picnicking. In autumn, the foliage around the lake transforms into vibrant colours, attracting many visitors.

    Finally, visit Kegon Falls, one of Japan’s most famous waterfalls, plunging 97 metres into a rocky gorge. Accessible via a short walk from Lake Chuzenji, the falls are stunning year-round, with a spectacular view from the observation platform. In winter, the falls can freeze, creating a beautiful ice formation. The area also features walking trails and viewpoints for additional exploration.
