Nōzaki Forest

Nōzaki Forest [添红森; のうざき・ゆ] is a largely deciduous forest located in northern Saka Prefecture. It is part of the Sakanohonde National Park area and takes up around 10% of the total area of the town of Kanizuru. The forest has long been popular with wild campers and hikers. It is best known for its beautiful autumn foliage, which also lends the woodlands their name (添 nō meaning 'autumn' and 红 zaki meaning 'vibrance; splendour').
