A Spring Hike in Mitsuse

Rice fields and forest on the mountainside

This nature walk begins at Café Notch

Walk up the hillside, past these beehives and vegetable fields

A patch of wildflowers leads into the woods

Spring has come to Mitsuse

These flooded fields will soon be filled with rice seedlings

Wild wisteria hangs from treetops and blooms in spring

The path runs along a cedar forest

The beautiful purple wildflowers are renge in Japanese, or Chinese milkvetch (Astragalus sinicus)

Ivy climbs a tree trunk

A crafted stream runs parallel to the path here

Many flowers, some tiny and delicate, line the trail

Take some time to listen to the bubbling mountain streams

Bright green leaves are the new growth this spring

This member of the Araceae genus resembles the North American Jack-in-the-pulpit

This interesting fern is possibly a Polystichum polyblepharum

Tiny patches of color everywhere

The mountainside village of Mitsuse, a short drive from central Fukuoka City and within the city limits of Saga, provides a welcome, easily accessible, natural haven for travelers and city folk. Enjoy a meal at Café Notch, and take a walk through the village fields and wildflowers, up the sloping mountainside, and into the trees (video). You’ll find streams, ferns, mosses, flowers, songbirds and fresh air under the forest canopy. This relaxed hike is paved all the way until it reaches an access road. There, you can turn right and soon reach a path leading right again to Yamanaka Campground or cross the road and continue up the hiking trail to the peak of Mt. Kana.
