Kumoba Pond makes for a soothing natural attraction near Karuizawa. It is also known as the Swan Lake amongst locals. Surrounded by lush greenery, there is a paved walking trail that will let you explore the beautiful natural area. You will love cycling around here as well. Even though the pond looks postcard perfect throughout the year, it becomes a must visit place in Karuizawa during autumn months. The colorful trees reflecting in the clear blue water make the whole area charming. Enjoy a cup of coffee at the on-site cafe while soaking in the natural beauty.
