Hiraoka Tree Art Center
Walk through a tunnel of fiery red along the Nomura maple tree path
In autumn, Hiraoka Tree Art Center transforms into a sea of deep crimson, drawing visitors into one of Sapporo’s most spectacular seasonal landscapes, where about 700 maple trees from eight different species paint the grounds in vibrant colors.
The expansive 2.9-hectare grounds feature beautifully maintained Japanese and Western-style gardens. The highlight of any visit is the 150-meter-long path lined with Nomura maples. When they turn a deep, brilliant crimson, the interlocking branches create a stunning "autumn leaf tunnel." Walking beneath this canopy of fiery red is a truly breathtaking experience.
Indulge in a peaceful forest escape As you stroll through the quiet grounds, you can hear the delicate rustle of leaves and feel the crisp, clear autumn air. This botanical sanctuary offers a unique opportunity to observe various species up close, from the classic Yamamomiji to the elegant Benishidare, each with its own distinct hue and leaf shape. Escape the hustle and bustle of the city and enjoy a special moment to fully immerse yourself in the deepening beauty of autumn.
