Senjogahara Marshland

Senjogahara Marshland is a mesmerizing expanse that stretches across 400 hectares at an altitude of 1,400 meters. This highland marsh is a haven for biodiversity, offering a sanctuary for rare plants and over 100 species of birds. The area is a living canvas that shifts with the seasons, each one painting the landscape in a different palette.

Spring and summer bring a lush, green expanse dotted with vibrant wildflowers. The air is alive with the sound of birds, making it a paradise for birdwatchers. As autumn approaches, the marsh transforms into a sea of golden grasses, framed by the fiery reds and oranges of the surrounding forests. Winter blankets the marsh in snow, creating a serene, almost otherworldly scene where the quiet is only broken by the crunch of footsteps on the boardwalk.

The wooden boardwalk that winds through Senjogahara allows visitors to immerse themselves in this breathtaking environment without disturbing its delicate balance. The views are stunning, with Mount Nantai towering in the background, making this a favorite spot for photographers and nature enthusiasts alike.
