Okama, Zao

The Emerald Green Surface has a Mythical Shimmer!
The Okama lake surface is known to change into different colors. The most standard is emerald green. You will no doubt be mesmerized by the contrast between the rough crater walls and the jewelry-like water surface. Depending on the weather, it may also change into a deep sky blue.

Views from Okama
Mt. Zao's Okama lake surface has a beautiful emerald green color. It shows different views according to season and time of the day. As it is at a high altitude where snow melts rather slowly, from spring through early summer, one can occasionally see the rare view of the harmony between the white of the remaining snow and the emerald green lake surface. Please enjoy the scenic beauty of Okama at dawn, with autumn leaves or covered in snow.
