    Yamagata Pref. Yonezawashi Sumomoyama 12118-6
    This ropeway links Yumoto Station with Tengendai Kogen Station on Sumomoyama. It carries passengers up 400 meters in about five minutes. The shop at the station sells Kogen Soft Ice Cream, coffee and tea made with Azuma natural spring water, and round konnyaku, a famous local product. From the windows of the ropeway cars, visitors can see the Iide Mountain Range and other natural wonders in the surrounding area.

    紅葉の見頃だと聞き、ロープウェイで標高1,350mの天元台高原まで登った。さらにリフト3本つないで1,820mまで登れるそうだが、上の斜面には雪が張り付いているし、結構な寒さなので眺めるだけにした。お目当ての紅葉ばあまりパッとしない。地元の人の話では「夏場に雨が多かったので今年はまったくダメ！」とのこと。期待通りにはいかなかったが、それでも下界では味わえない山の紅葉を楽しめた。

    Yamagata Pref. Nanyoushi Akayu 2836
    This vineyard has been operated by a long-established winery since the Taisho period. In addition to wine varieties of grapes, they cultivate a number of grape varieties for picking too. Visitors come from all around the country during grape-picking season—early August to mid-October. From grape cultivation to fermentation, the family does every step for themselves, creating a limited number of bottles of their original wine brand, which you are unlikely to find through normal distribution channels.

    JRの赤湯駅から車で、10分ほどでしょうか。こちらのワイナリーは大正時代からワインを作っている老舗です。100%手作りで手間ひまをかけています。自家畑で育てられたぶどうが大切に作られてます。市場に出回らない希少なワインもありますよ

Yamagata Areas

around-area-map

Although often overlooked, Yamagata prefecture by no means lacks appeal: the Yamadera temple trail through the mountains, deliciously tender Yonezawa wagyu, and over 100 steaming hot springs, most notably Zao Onsen, await visitors. When winter comes, the snowcapped peaks become dotted with skiers by day and onsen-goers by night, while summer brings the celebration of juicy Yamagata cherries.
