Sagamihara Kita Park (相模原北公園)

Flow of the course

About this spot

A park located in Shimokuzawa, Sagamihara, whose autumn-leaf highlight is the row of ginkgo trees along the 'Promenade of Art.' The trees are usually at their best from late November to early December, turning the tree-lined path into a colorful tunnel and creating a quiet space where you can feel the end of autumn. Walking wrapped in golden leaves overhead and a carpet of fallen leaves underfoot naturally slows the pace for both children and adults. Admission is free and the park is open year-round (the grounds are always accessible), with parking also available, making it an easy park to visit by car.

Season & hours

Tips

Admission is free, and there is parking. Shoes tend to get dirty during the fallen-leaf season, so having a towel to wipe them down is reassuring for the ride home.

Best time to visit

Afternoon, when the low angled sunlight shines through the ginkgo leaves
