Will leaves in Miyajima be gone by Dec 5/6?

I'm currently looking at going on a Hiroshima/Miyajima day trip from Osaka on the 5th or 6th of December, and Nara the other day. Will Miyajima still have any of the autumn colours or is it likely the trees will be barren I.e. not worth visiting?

Miyajima's colours peak in mid-November.

This is the Miyajima fall color report for about this time last year.

I hope this helps.

Likely to be finished by then. It was ok when I was there on the 12th, and I'm back there again today so will be able to check the changes from 14 days ago.

I believe the peak is pretty much over already now. It should be completely over by early December. This year has been a relatively early year.

So is it still worth going at all if it's going to be completely over? If Miyajima is described as one of the three most scene places, will this still hold true in December? Otherwise any other suggestions for things to do? E.g Maybe just spend the whole day at Hiroshima

Miyajima is worth going at any time of the year. But it will not be worth going there to see autumn leaves in early December.

Now (Sunday) half the leaves were on the ground and half on the trees. Much more advanced than my visit on the 13th. I would expect very little to remain by December. The spot we did our leaf viewing was still nice, but a little obscure - i.e. we didn't have to contend with anyone else - just a few deer.

Passing a koyo forecast yesterday confirmed that most places Hiroshima (as judged by the locals) were passing peak and in decline.

(In Osaka briefly and the ginkgo trees are still colourful, but the wind is doing its work.)
