The Nikko-Shiobara Momiji Panorama Road features a variety of elevations, so the autumn foliage starts turning at higher altitudes around mid-October. One of the highlights, Omagari, located about five minutes by car from the Shiobara entrance, typically reaches its peak from late October to around November 10. The road, once a toll route, is now free of charge, making it ideal for a scenic drive all the way to Kinugawa while taking in the changing colors. The autumn leaves near the Shirataki Drive-In teahouse at the summit are also especially beautiful from mid-October to early November.
