2025 Zao Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in July)

People say to go to Tibet to see the blue sky + tree ice It depends on character 🙂↔️ Because it is often foggy or melted snow 🙂↕️ We have really done a lot in our last and this life There is such good weather In my place by car, the road at the Upper Zango Cable Car Station has some many bends, about 1.5hour from Sendai. It was a sunny day and it didn't snow, so it was safe Because too many people suspend ticket sales at 8:30 my place just arrived at 8:00 We also packed the whole cable car 🥹 before leaving I promise that I will continue to do more good Help many elderly people cross the road Continue to be so good to patients and respond to requests😂 📍Tibetan King Tree Ice #globaltravel

It is a circular volcanic lake surrounded by the three peaks of Mt. Kumanodake, Mt. Katta, and Mt. Goshiki. You can enjoy the beautiful emerald-colored scenery. In winter, the road is closed and the lake is often covered in fog due to its high altitude, so it is said that only about 30% of the time you can see it clearly. It was truly beautiful. The temperature can be about 10°C different from the plains, so we recommend wearing warm clothes and sneakers! ୨୧――――――――――――――――――୨୧ information Name of facility📍Zao no Okama Address📍Ishidake National Forest, Shichikashuku-cho, Karita-gun, Miyagi Prefecture Access📍2 minutes on foot from Zao Karita-dake Parking Lot Opening hours📍8:00-17:00 *Open from May to late October No tours available from early November to late April due to road closures ୨୧――――――――――――――――――୨୧ #Girls trip #Adult girls trip #Couples trip #Domestic travel #japan #Zao Onsen #Zao no Okama #Tohoku tourism

One of the famous attractions in Tohoku is Zao Okama in Yamagata, a volcanic lake also known as the Five-Colored Lake. The lake water boils repeatedly due to volcanic activity. The water of Lake Okama is green. You can take the cable car up the mountain and then walk to Okama. We drove to the mountain by ourselves. There is a parking lot and a sales department at the tourist center so it is very convenient. It takes about 10 minutes to walk from the parking lot to Okama. Okama is beautiful from every angle. In addition to seeing the beautiful volcanic lake - Okama, I also accidentally climbed two of Japan's 100 Most Famous Mountains - Kumanodake (Zao Mountain) at an altitude of 1,841m and Karitadake at an altitude of 1,758m. It took 1 hour and 50 minutes to go from the visitor center to the top of the mountain through Mikama and back, taking photos and enjoying the scenery. This itinerary is very suitable for families to travel together. The children were having fun walking, playing and picking up stones. Stones from volcanic eruptions could be seen everywhere around them. Soon the weather on the mountain began to change and fog appeared. It was only 9 degrees on the mountain at that time, which was very cool.

#AbsolutelyFreeTrip A rare zoo that specializes in foxes where you can get up close and personal with them. Since humans enter a vast fox enclosure, it seems that in some cases you may be bitten by the foxes. Also, they warned people not to crouch or sit down because they will bite if they bend over. I found this place when there was nowhere to go on a rainy day in Zao. It was good that there was a roof. Please be careful because each child must be accompanied by at least one adult. There were a lot of foxes, but most of them were sleeping. I didn't have a chance to see them up close, but they were cute. Admission fee Adults (junior high school students and above): 1,500 yen Elementary school students and below: Free Miyagi Zao Fox Village 11-3 Kawaharako, Yamiya, Fukuoka, Shiroishi City, Miyagi Prefecture 989-0733 #Zao

#AbsolutelyFreeTrip Takimidai, a must-see scenic spot in Zao Town, is about a 10-minute drive from Togatta Onsen. It is on the way to Okama. Takimidai is located at an altitude of about 700m, and from here you can see the whole view including Fudotaki, the largest waterfall in Mt. Zao, and Sankaitaki, which has been selected as one of the "100 Best Waterfalls in Japan". It is known that the beauty of the waterfall is even more beautiful during the season of fresh green leaves, but it is also known that it is even more beautiful during the season of autumn leaves. Please note that it is not possible to visit in winter due to snow. Free parking available. Takimidai In Kuraishidake, Zao-cho, Katta-gun, Miyagi Prefecture Okama is called Okama because its appearance surrounded by the outer rim of the mountain resembles a kettle. The surface of the lake is filled with emerald green water, and in contrast to the rough crater walls, it has a mysterious atmosphere. It is a symbol of Zao along with the frost-covered trees in winter. The lake water is highly acidic, so no living creatures can live there. The temperature of the lake drops to 2 degrees Celsius at a depth of 10 meters from the surface, and the temperature rises as the depth increases. This is a unique double-thermal layer, which is a lake unlike any other in the world. It is also called the "Five-Color Lake" because the color changes depending on how the sunlight hits it. The surrounding area is located in a mountainous area at an altitude of about 1,600 meters, and the temperature can be about 10 degrees lower than the temperature at the foot of the mountain. Even during Golden Week, it was only 3 degrees, so it was extremely cold! Please bring warm clothes that can be removed. Also, comfortable shoes are recommended! In bad weather and poor visibility due to thick fog, it may not be possible to see Okama. I went there twice during Golden Week, but I was only able to see it once. Even during Golden Week, there were days when the road was closed due to freezing. [Season when Okama can be viewed] Usually from late April to early November (may vary depending on weather) (Important) Generally, it is not possible to view Okama from early November to late April due to the winter closure of the Zao Echo Line and High Line. Viewing may not be possible due to the closure of the Zao Echo Line and Zao High Line. Please check the road traffic information for the day in advance.

Check-in date: 2025/02/23-27 All practical information! ☁️Transportation: 🚗We arrived by charter car and have our own parking lot. There is a small uphill slope at the entrance of the hotel in the parking lot. It is a little slippery when it snows, so be careful! 🚌If you take the bus, the hotel is five minutes away from the bus station, but it is uphill, so be careful~ 🚍There is a shuttle bus from Yamagata Station to the hotel. You can check it on the official website. You need to make an appointment 3 days in advance! ☁️Hotel facilities: Tatami in the whole room! When checking in, they also helped to wipe the feet of the suitcases. You have to take off your shoes as soon as you enter the hotel~ Japanese hotels are very clean and flawless! There are not many rooms but there is no elevator, so you have to carry your luggage up (the hotel staff will help you carry it, but he can only carry one at most haha! You have to carry it yourself when you check out🤣 The route is a bit complicated, like a maze, but it's quite interesting! There is also a public space on the second floor where you can eat and drink! ☁️Service: The staff at the counter don't speak English very well, so communication is a bit difficult, and it can even be said that they are very confused... You may need to prepare a translator! It is also best to confirm the reservation items (such as shuttle buses) again and again! ☁️Facilities: There is only a toilet and no bathroom in the room, but there is a 24-hour large bath! The bathhouse is not big but the facilities are complete, and there are not many people in the hotel, so it is easy to wash without being crowded~ ☁️Meals: The breakfast is Japanese! It is about once every 3 days~ It's quite exquisite! ☁️Check-in guide: You can get a discount coupon in the hotel if you don't clean the room! (See the last photo) 👉🏻No cleaning at all 1000-yuan coupon 👉🏻500-yuan coupon for towel hanging at the door You can use it at the sales department next to the counter (Figure 7). There are many snacks limited to Zao at the sales department, and the price is very reasonable! It is a discount coupon and there is no minimum consumption. It is great to buy it and put it directly upstairs in the suitcase! ☁️Skiing: It takes about 5-7 minutes to walk to the Uminodai Cable Car Station, which is super convenient! There is also a drying room for ski equipment next to the shoe cabinet in the hotel! The following is a small complaint🥹 When I first checked in, I made an appointment with the counter for the shuttle bus, but the counter told me that our appointment was not registered on the day! ! I was a little speechless, but fortunately I still got on after communicating! So everyone must confirm again and again!

#AbsolutelyFreeTrip Miyagi Zao Eboshi Daffodil Festival This is an event that takes place every year from late April to mid-May, where 600,000 daffodils of over 30 varieties beautifully decorate the slopes of "Miyagi Zao Eboshi Resort" in Zao National Park. The wide variety of daffodils filling the slopes is overwhelming! It was empty so I was able to take as many photos as I wanted. It's rare to have a chance to see so many daffodils, so please go☆ ● Viewing period: Usually from late April to mid-May ※Depends on the flowering situation. It will end as soon as the daffodils have finished blooming.

Features: An endless white world. Match the trees with a white coat. Produce various shapes. I knew the night before that the weather would be good the next day. Big sun. Will not fog. Get up at six in the morning. To catch the first bus from Yamagata Station to Zao Juhyo Sanlu Station. It's tiring but worth it Rating: 9/10

Zao Onsen Ski Resort in Yamagata Prefecture, Japan, is renowned for its unique winter phenomenon—the "snow monsters." From December to March, strong winds freeze mist onto the Aomori fir trees at the summit of Mount Zao, creating a stunning array of snow-covered sculptures. This icy wonderland attracts countless skiing enthusiasts and photographers, making it a must-visit destination in Tohoku during winter! ⛄🌲 The Awe-Inspiring Snow Monsters The best spot to view Zao's snow monsters is at the Hell Valley Station of the Zao Ropeway.

The snow-covered plateau at the summit glistens under the sunlight, resembling a kingdom of ice and snow. On select nights, the snow monsters are illuminated (check dates with Zao Onsen Tourism Association), adding a magical and romantic touch to the scenery. Be sure to wear warm clothing and anti-slip shoes, as temperatures at the summit can drop to -10°C! ❄️ Skiing and Hot Springs Zao Onsen Ski Resort features 14 slopes suitable for beginners to advanced skiers. After skiing, don't miss the sulfur hot springs at the foot of the mountain. The Zao Onsen Large Outdoor Bath (700 yen for adults) offers a relaxing soak amidst snowy landscapes.

📍Itinerary Introduction 🚩Travel route You must see the frost trees when you go to Mount Zao, so you can’t skip the second cable car ride, because you can only see the frost trees when you reach the top of the mountain from the second cable car station, the Plateau Juhyo Station. 🏖️Check-in attractions Zao Ice Tree 🚇Transportation Take the bus from the No. 1 bus stop outside JR Yamagata Station. It takes about 40 minutes to reach the final stop: Zao Onsen Bus Terminal. The fare is 1,200 yen. After getting off the bus, walk for about 10 minutes to reach Zao Ropeway Station. You need to take two cable cars to go up the mountain. The round trip four-way cable car costs a total of 4,200 yen. 📷Shadow Phase The Peak 🍜Special Food 🏠Accommodation recommendations Richmond Hotel Yamagata Ekimae: The hotel service is very good, the breakfast is very rich with tempura, the restaurant is also open outside of breakfast hours, and provides free drinks and ice cream. 💡Notes: The Zao Cable Car may stop operating due to weather conditions, such as strong winds, so be sure to check the official website before departure to confirm whether the cable car is operating normally on that day.

Excellent weather If you think you can't drive in Japan by yourself, joining a tour group is the best option Take a bus with a tour group to see the frost trees Along the way, the guide told us about the melting of the frost trees. I don't really hope to see it. I didn't expect to take the cable car all the way up the mountain. The frost on the trees is still there. The weather is so good that you can see the frost on the trees very clearly. The scenery is so beautiful. #NewCharmTravel

Coming to Zao Ski Resort in northeastern Japan is like walking into the world of animation. The most classic attraction here is the "Juhyo" landscape, which is only available in winter. The entire white world seems to be cast by ice magic, allowing people to take photos while skiing! Put on a bright orange snow suit and create your own style in this pure white snow country. Diving down from the top of the ski resort, every breath is cool and refreshing. This is the real inner freedom! Selections from my ski diary: • The board is BURTON, very handsome • The coolest pose among the frost trees, please refer to the photo (laughs) • After skiing, you can soak in Zao Hot Springs. You will be so happy that you won’t want to go home! Recommendation index: ★★★★★ Tips: It is recommended to come on weekdays when there are fewer people and it is easier to take photos. Remember to wear bright-colored clothes to make yourself the focus in the snow!

I was lucky to see the Zao tree ice with blue sky and white clouds on this trip I checked the weather forecast several times before departure and finally decided to adjust to the day with the best chance of sunny weather! I have to say that seeing the frost trees requires not only luck but also physical strength😆 Because I didn't book the cable car priority ticket in advance I stood for about three hours that day before I could get on the cable car! (In addition, the ticket sales place is divided into manual and machine, you can buy tickets from both sides~ The manual one only accepts cash and there are very few people queuing) During the second section of the cable car, I saw the beautiful frost trees. Because once you get to the top of the mountain, a blizzard hits and visibility is extremely low I am also glad that I took some photos on the cable car just now🥺 If you want to see the frost trees next year, I suggest you wear warmer socks and clothes, especially when your feet are standing for a long time, they are really cold (the toes feel like they are about to get frostbitten) #Snow scene #Zao tree frost #Zao

#2月好地方2025 A must-go to "Snow Country" Japan during the snow season🇯🇵! This time we came to the winter-only Zao Ice Tree in Japan🌲❄️ 📒Travel tips: Seven days before departure, we bought the "priority clearance" ticket online and booked the cable car at 12:00🚠 We took the cable car up the mountain smoothly at around 12 o'clock that day. The frost trees really depended on the weather and luck of the day! When we first went up the mountain, visibility was poor and everything was white🌫️. We have been waiting for a while finally! The clouds have dispersed, and the cute frost trees are greeting us. 💞Recommendation reason: Winter only, the strange-shaped frost on the top of the mountain is really cute😍 #Japan #Zao Juhyo #Yamagata Zao

I had planned to visit Tohoku to see the Zao Snow Monsters a year ago. I saw some spectacular photos online and was very excited before the trip. Unfortunately, we didn't get to ride the Zao Ropeway, only the Central Ropeway. We still saw the snow monsters, but they weren't as impressive. Luckily, the weather was great that day and there weren't too many people, so we could take lots of photos!

You can enjoy it all-inclusively. It's great that you can order what you like for breakfast and lunch and order as much as you like. #SendaiTrip #Tohoku

Compared to the nostalgia of #银山温泉, #扎王树冰 is a more worthwhile view. During the two-stage cable car ride, we gradually saw the trees covered with snow, and finally turned into #アイスモンスター ice monsters. The weather on the mountain changes very quickly. The visibility was good when we climbed the mountain that day, but when we reached the top it started snowing and the visibility dropped. I heard from tourists who went there the next day that visibility was poor and they could only take photos at the top of the mountain. Are you also tempted by this journey that completely relies on your luck? 📍Address: https://maps.app.goo.gl/hbc9Lf31EXqQCZNX6 #Good Places to Go in January 2025
