Chiiwakyo 乳岩峡 (Aichi Prefecture)
Chiiwakyo is one of the coolest natural places in Aichi Prefecture. The hike takes you past some waterfalls, forest and caves. It's kind of way out in the sticks, but worth it.

Daisekirinzan Yanbaru National Park 大石林山 やんばる国立公園 (Okinawa Prefecture)
Located in the Yanbaru National Park World Heritage Site, Daisekirinzan has some of the most breathtaking scenery in Okinawa. It has jagged volcanic rocks jutting out of the ground, forming interesting natural shapes. Daisekirinzan is also home to many rare and endangered animals endemic to Okinawa such as the Okinawan Rail and the Okinawan rat. Daisekirinzan is worth the trip, it feels like stepping back in time to the age of the dinosaurs.
The Ryukyu Royal Family also used to come here to pray. It is a very special place, both naturally, historically and religiously.

Dogashima Loop + Tombolo Land Bridge 堂ヶ島 (Shizuoka Prefecture)
Dogashima is one of the most famous area on the Izu Peninsula and part of the Fuji-Izu-Hakone national park. Dogashima has interesting rock formations and if the weather is good you can take a boat into the sea cave. It is also home to a land bridge that appears during low-tide which is pretty cool.

Ena Gorge 恵那峡 (Gifu Prefecture)
Ena Gorge is not a natural gorge, it is actually a dam. If you ignore some of the dam like features, it is pretty cool. Water is a nice colour. Nearby is a shoddy theme park built in the 80s and a random pyramid. A lot of oddities, something for everyone.
A very chill walk around the peninsula-like thing.

Fujimidai 富士見台 (Gifu/Nagano Prefectures)
Fujimidai is part of the Chuo alps quasi national park in Gifu/Nagano prefectures. It literally translates as Mt. Fuji viewing area. On a clear day, you can see Mt. Fuji way out in the distance. From the top of Fujimidai, it was 360 MLG no-scope views of the central and southern alps. It's pretty spectacular and worth the hike.

Fukuurajima 福浦島 (Miyagi Prefecture | Matsushima Bay)
Fukuurajima is an island that you can reach from the Japanese mainland via bridge. Matsushima is considered to be one of the 3 views of Japan. The bay is littered with small islands that house unique vegetation. Fukuurajima itself is one of those islands. It has been designated a prefectural park and is protected. On the island you can view the unique plantlife and get some views of the Matsushima Bay. For the best view of the bay, I recommend taking a boat tour.
