Chausuyama Highlands

The highlands at the foot of Mt. Chausu—the tallest mountain in Aichi—is home to the only ski resort in the prefecture. But the highlands do not only attract visitors in the winter. Many people look forward with much excitement to the spring—mid-May to early June to be exact—when the Shibazakura Festival is held. With shibazakura (moss phlox) painting the highlands pink as far as the eyes can see, the scenery will surely take your breath away. You can also take a walk around the illuminated garden at night. You'll surely get a great shot to remember the visit. What's more, from July to August, you can try many exciting activities like fish-catching, hiking, and canoeing. At night, you might get to see shooting stars and wild deer! Great nature awaits you throughout the year.
