π‘ Tips for Visitors
Most facilities and trailheads are cash-only, so bring sufficient yen before entering the park. The best times to visit are late spring through early summer for fresh greenery and mid-October to early November for peak autumn colors. English signage is limited on trails, so download offline maps or bring a GPS device, and consider joining guided tours from Tokyo which often include English-speaking guides.
