In the loaded 2025 prefectural-capital forecast, dates run from November 5, 2025 to December 21, 2025. Start with your travel date on the map. Then open a prefecture to compare local viewing spots, because parks and mountain areas can differ from the capital date. What the forecast dates mean ------------------------------ ### The source date JMC defines a forecast date as the first day when most leaves on a sample tree have turned red or yellow. The dates follow Japan Meteorological Agency observation standards. [ Japan Meteorological Corporation (JMC) ](https://n-kishou.com/corp/news-contents/autumn/?lang=en) ### Prefecture scope Each national map entry uses the first prefectural-capital station returned by the source. It is not a forecast for every location in the prefecture. ### Estimated map phases The map groups dates into five ranges: more than 14 days before, 8-14 days before, 1-7 days before, the forecast date through seven days after, and later dates. These are display ranges, not live observations. Planning autumn leaves around Mt. Fuji ---------------------------------------- Mt. Fuji spans Yamanashi and Shizuoka, while the lakes and mountain viewing spots can differ from capital dates. Check both prefectures, then compare the leaf forecast with Fuji visibility. [ Yamanashi viewing spots ](https://isfujivisible.com/koyo/yamanashi) [ Shizuoka viewing spots ](https://isfujivisible.com/koyo/shizuoka) [ Mt. Fuji autumn guide ](https://isfujivisible.com/blog/mount-fuji-autumn-leaves-2026) [ Fuji visibility forecast ](https://isfujivisible.com#visibility-forecast) Frequently Asked Questions -------------------------- When is the best time to see autumn leaves in Japan? There is no single nationwide peak. Choose your travel date on the map, then open prefecture viewing spots because capital and local dates can differ. What does an autumn leaves forecast date mean? JMC defines it as the first day when most leaves on a sample tree have turned red or yellow. Local conditions can differ from the reference station. What is the difference between yellow and red leaf forecasts? Yellow uses ginkgo forecast dates, while red uses maple forecast dates. Their timing varies by location, so compare both instead of assuming one always comes first. Is this a live autumn foliage map? No. JMC supplies forecast dates, and this site converts them into estimated phases around each date. Check the source update and local conditions before travel.
