Rest & Recreation
The changing seasons bring new sights, sounds and experiences
-
Spring
The days are getting longer and the plum and cherry start to blossom. Warmer weather and blue skies make hiking attractive.
-
Summer
The long, hot days are ideal for outdoor adventure. Splashing in the rivers and sitting out under the stars in the evening brings welcome cool.
-
Autumn
The leaves start to turn and the valleys become a patchwork of colour. Cooler nights stimulate an appetite for game hotpots and other warming food.
-
Winter
Clear blue skies are interspersed with dramatic cloud and sometimes snow. The warm hearth of the kominka is the perfect place to settle in for some hot sake.
