Summer vacation - Daisetsuzan National Park

On my way from lake Akan to the Sounkyo (kyo=gorge) my Japanese Navigation system wanted to give me some additional adventure and guided me through nice back country roads. I'ts just good, that the rental cars in Hokkaido have all wheel drive.

I was going up to Mt. Kurodake. On a nice walk in parallel to the chairlift I saw some blue berries and stawberries, the first on my trip and I had the chance to take the first pictures of dragonflys.







Nice panorama

On the way down with the chairlift (that was going about two meters above the ground) I saw some pretty flowers. Reminded me of  Enzian. Unfortunately not close enough to get a good picture.


Afterwards I was checking out the waterfalls alongside the gorge and the gorge itself. Unfortunately most of the gorge is not accessible. This was very disappointing.
