Spring Forest Hike in Annaka, Gunma — with Mt. Myōgi in View

English

April morning light filtering through the tall cedars of Annaka — the forest floor still cool and quiet. Twisted branches and moss-covered stumps everywhere, with Mt. Myōgi visible across the valley. There's something magical about hiking alone in these old-growth groves, where time just slows down.

４月の朝日が杉林に差し込む安中の森。地面はまだ冷たくて、ねじれた枝や苔むした切り株が静かに佇んでいる。遠く妙義山も望める。こういう古い森の中で一人歩いてると、時間が止まったみたいで最高だな！
