Start with the first one and work down.
They are in the order most people enjoy them.
| Months | What it is like |
|---|---|
| March – May | Cherry blossom at Maruoka Castle in early April. Calm seas along the cliffs. |
| June – August | Wet in June. The monastery forest and the museum are both cool in August. |
| September – November | Autumn colour at Eiheiji in November. Echizen snow crab opens in November and is the local event of the year. |
| December – February | Snow, grey sea and crab. The cliffs in winter are dramatic, and the path is exposed — stay back from the edge. |
