Product Info

Explore the Soni Plateau during the magic hour for a pampas grass stroll♪

Soni Plateau spans 40 hectares of pampas grass, glowing silver and gold in autumn sunlight, creating a mesmerizing view.
Our bus tour includes experiencing the "Magic Hour," a golden twilight period lasting around 1 to 30 minutes before sunset, with a visit to the nearby "Soni Plateau Farm Garden" for local products and popular craft beer shopping.

Walk through UNESCO World Heritage Yoshino Mountain in the fall.

In spring, Mount Yoshino flourishes with 30,000 cherry blossoms, while autumn paints its leaves, maples, and momiji in fiery reds, yellows, and oranges, offering a spectacular sight.
The gradual color shift from the summit to the base is unique to Yoshino, often enhanced by mist, creating a magical ambiance. You can take a vintage ropeway ride (additional fee) for an aerial stroll, enjoy renowned Yoshino kudzu sweets, and explore at your leisure.
