About this episode

This episode’s stage is the Taisetsu mountain range in central Hokkaido, with peaks that reach heights of 2000 meters. The Taisetsu mountain range has been appointed the largest national park in Japan, with an area of approximately 226,000 hectares. The two ropeways on the mountain range make the climb effortless. Our show’s navigator, Charlotte Kate Fox, will explore the flower fields located halfway up Mt.Asahidake, the tallest mountain in the Taisetsu mountain range. We have also prepared rare footage that sheds light on the ecology of the beautiful flowers in the mountain range.
