Things to do in Gunma

A second cherry-viewing period arrives in spring, with timing dependent on temperatures.

Gunma Tourism identifies early to mid-November as the usual foliage window. The safest viewpoint and open routes must be confirmed before travel.

Maples around the red bridge and spring source reach peak colour.

Gunma’s official autumn guide gives mid-October to early November as the typical window for deciduous trees and larch colour.

Colour starts high around Tenjindaira and descends toward the valley.

A cold-season visit can offer snow or steaming winter scenery, depending on conditions. Prepare for icy paths and transport disruption. Plan a daylight visit and check New Year opening arrangements. Yubatake is a viewing area, not a bathing pool. Bathhouse entry rules and opening times vary.
