Aso Caldera Trekking ~2026 Season~ Confirmed to be Held! ~Beginners and Families Welcome~

Concept: "Mountain Walking is in Aso!!" ~The Unique Charms of Aso~

Feel the vitality of life sprouting from the black mountainside after the spring burning, be breathless at the stunning view of Miyama Kirishima flowers painting the mountainside pink in early summer. Walk the cool ridges in the early morning of summer, and be enveloped by golden grasslands and a mystical sunset in autumn. The same mountain looks completely different depending on the season, which is a major charm of Aso. We offer a heartwarming and special experience where participants naturally become "acquainted" by standing in the vast caldera, gazing at the same scenery, and feeling the same wind.
