The summer in Japan is hot and humid. To overcome the heat, it is recommended to cool you off with the help of nature. This time, we recommend two spots in the Nikko area: Lake Yunoko and Yudaki Falls. Lake Yunoko, located in a tranquil mountain, was created by the eruption of Mt. Mitsudake. Yudaki Falls is a powerful waterfall that flows 50 meters down from this lake. There is an observation deck in front of the waterfall basin, where you can enjoy the impressive view of the falls from a close distance. There are also hiking trails along Lake Yunoko and Yudaki Falls, so it is recommended to stop by these spots during your hike to cool you down.
