Tsubakurodani

Overview

Tsubakurodani is one of the most popular scenic viewpoints along the Bandai-Azuma Skyline. It was named "Tsubakurodani" (Valley of the Cliff Swallows) by the writer Yasushi Inoue, as cliff swallows used to fly around the area. The 80m-high Fudōzawa Bridge, spanning the valley floor, is a symbolic landmark of Tsubakurodani. From the bridge, you can enjoy breathtaking views of the valley with its vibrant greenery and autumn foliage, as well as a panoramic vista of Fukushima city in the distance. The autumn foliage season is particularly spectacular, with the mountains ablaze in fiery reds and yellows. A clear stream flows beneath the bridge, surrounded by abundant nature. Tsubakurodani has a parking lot and restrooms, making it a convenient stop. When driving along the Bandai-Azuma Skyline, be sure to stop by Tsubakurodani and experience its majestic natural beauty.
