The article starts by covering Akagi’s three crater lakes, where you can go pedal boating, ice fishing, and stroll on a boardwalk along an ecologically unique marsh. It goes over Akagi’s multiple peaks and how to hike the tallest one. Don’t miss the bit about the mountain’s serene shrines and historic festivals. Plus, learn about e-bike tours around the foothills through beautiful fields of flowers. Read up on where to eat Akagi’s famous pork, and where to take a dip in natural hot spring baths. The article is full of information about Akagi through the seasons, so you can get inspired for your next trip!
Thanks so much to the team at National Geographic Traveller for working on the article with us.
