Arima Onsen in autumn is a feast for the eyes, body and soul. I took the Arima Onsen Ropeway and passed through layers of red maple leaves. I looked down at this secret autumn land from the air and felt like I was in a fairy tale.
The cable car departs from Arima Onsen Station and passes by the magnificent Mt. Rokko along the way. The Osaka Bay and Kobe city scenery in the distance are vaguely visible, and at your feet is a sea of red and yellow maple leaves. Autumn (especially mid-November) is the most beautiful time here, when maple leaves dye the entire valley red, creating a breathtaking picture. In just a 12-minute drive, you can enjoy the colorful nature.
After arriving at Rokkosan Station on the top of the mountain, you can also go to the Rokkosan Observatory to enjoy the most beautiful night view of Kobe, or take a leisurely stroll in the mountains and enjoy the autumn breeze. After the cable car trip, of course you have to go back to **Arima Onsen** to soak in the gold or silver hot springs to completely relax your body and mind.
