Okutama Mukashi Michi (Okutama Old Trail)

I walked Okutama Mukashi Michi, which is the old trail from the Okutama station to the Okutama lake.

In this season the leaves have changed their color to red and yellow.

The trail is about 10km long, and takes around 4 hours to go through.

The views from the bridges are quite beautiful.
