Climbing Mt Takao

Image
Really nice walk up and down Mt Takao yesterday. Very crowded at the summit, but there are multiple trails (and most people seemed to take the cable car), so the actual getting there and back still feels like a peaceful walk. There was a nice view towards Mt Fuji from the top but unfortunately it was bashfully hiding behind cloud the whole time. The view towards Tokyo was good, but I preferred the slightly lower view from Mt Inari on the way back via the Inariyama Trail.

Minoh Park and Falls, Osaka

Image
Back to nature with a nice walk to Minoh Falls, north of Osaka - along with a side trip up the very steep stairs to the lookout back over the city. A wonderful place for capturing Autumn foliage, something to photograph at every turn. A very popular spot, even in the middle of a weekday.       Keeping the waterfall theme going from earlier, I took the train over to Kobe to check out Nunobiki Falls. The falls were very pretty in person, but came out a bit green in the photos. After night had fallen, I headed over to the waterfront area for a little bit more of a wander before making the trip back to the hotel in Osaka.
