Mikurigaike

Mikurigaike

Mikuri Lake, with its clear and beautiful surface, is a symbol of Murodou and is regarded as the most beautiful volcanic lake in the Northern Alps. This lake, formed about 10,000 years ago, has a circumference of approximately 630 meters and a depth of around 15 meters. Walking along the paved promenade from Murodou, you will find the azure lake come into view, with the majestic mountains reflected on its deep blue surface from July to October. In autumn, the lake is adorned with colorful foliage, creating a breathtaking scene. The lakeside is also a habitat for the Japanese ptarmigan, and you might be lucky enough to encounter one. The reflection of the mountains on the tranquil lake surface brings peace to the heart and offers a chance to enjoy the beauty of nature.
