What other travelers are saying about Todoroki Valley
We visited here on a rainy day as we wanted to get away from the concrete jungle and see some green.
Some of the park was closed off due to fallen trees so we didn't get to explore everything. But what we did was lovely. I think she to the rain we pretty much had the place to ourselves only seeing 2 other people during our walk which lasted about an hour.
Great place to visit
I entered from the temple entrance. If you come out from Todoroki station and see that the entrance to the park is closed off, don't give up!
As of 31 May 2025, large sections of the park are still closed off, but what I could see was absolutely fantastic.
Take note that the park entrance that’s closest to Todoroki Station is currently closed for construction until August 2026.
However, part of the park is still accessible from the nearby Todoroki Fudoson Temple.
This place is a natural sanctuary in the middle of the concrete jungle of Tokyo. Amazing how the city has been able to maintain it. When inside, you can barely hear anything but nature and faraway voices of local tourists.
I went just as it opened on a Sunday. I felt a wave of peace and serenity going into a quiet, nature environment, surrounded by trees and streams, after being in the sensory overload that is central Tokyo. I would highly recommend a visit if you need a break from hustle and bustle of the city. Just bring mozzie repellant as there were quite a few mosquitos buzzing around.
