Ancient Forest Walk in Sakuho, Nagano

English

Wandered into this lush, moss-covered forest in Sakuho during early summer — the air was so thick with green you could almost drink it! Gnarled old trees, soft moss everywhere, and Mt. Yatsugatake visible in the distance. This is what Japan's mountain forests feel like when you really slow down and pay attention.

６月の佐久穂町でこんなコケむした古い森に出会いました！空気が緑で満ちてるって感じ。ねじ曲がった老木、どこもかしこもコケだらけで、遠くには八ヶ岳も望める。日本の山の森ってこういうものなんだなって改めて感じた！
